Let's see how he does with no TC next year. Judging by what he did this season compared to Alonso, his driving style is very very hard on the tires. And with no TC, he'll be even harder on them, especially on the rear tires. Just wait until next year... drivers that are softer on their tires and with a soft right leg will benefit hugely. Drivers with a soft right leg but hard on the tires, like Hamilton, might suffer. I mean... look at his tire failures and gambles this year.
And I don't like him, personally. I think that his success has made him act like a spoiled brat (sorry for the harsh words, but that's the truth), and also the presence of his father in the garage has had an effect on the team. You might say Alonso is whining, but have you wondered why? And does he have a good reason? I'd say yes. The team has pushed him aside and block-jumped towards Hamilton.
