If McLaren really was faster (significantly) across the year than it says little for Hamilton and Button that they finhed behind Alonso...
Hoever I think that overall, the ferrari was faster from Germany on, until Abu Dhabi where McLaren did make some changes that lifted the car to a better than Ferrari level.
arguing over who had the better car overall is pointless given variations in tracks, strengths and weaknesses, development, etc. especially when there is so little between them.
Mclaren was not the faster car when Alonso had his run of firsts. He qualified well and raced well. There is no question the Ferrari was the better car on those days.
And no, I don't think Alonso was the most significant factor in those victories. Ferrari found something that lifted the car.
