The driver's championship may have gone down to the wire, but there was less to write home about in the team fight, with Mercedes wrapping up the battle ages ago. We've been watching the Force India tussle with Williams all season long, and that went firmly Force India's way as the Grove-based squad dropped back towards the end of the year.

Sauber also had plenty to celebrate as they kept hold of their 10th place finish thanks to the results in Brazil. Manor couldn't raise any major challenge in Yas Marina, meaning they finish 11th, but all teams managed to get a point on the board this season.
