Alonso comes up just short

By Reuters in Sao Paulo | China Daily | Updated: 2012-11-27 07:51

Fernando Alonso failed to win a third Formula One championship on Sunday, but the Ferrari driver still rated his season as the best of his career.

The two titles he won with Renault in Brazil in 2005 and 2006 seemed to fill him with less pride than the defeat to Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel because he felt he was battling against the odds this time.

Two years ago in Abu Dhabi, he had lost out to Vettel after taking a 15 point lead into the final race. At Interlagos on Sunday, he almost clawed back the 13 he needed to overhaul the German.
