Lewis was the best driver this year, there is no doubt about that. And he won the title because of that but also helped by a very fast and reliable car with a team that made very little mistakes.
Toto and Lewis were very good about spinning the story the Ferrari were the better car (remember the "56 points is a lot" after Spa?) but in the end no other team could muster any challenge to Mercedes' strength of car and team. So it was another year where the best driver in the best car won.
