Consistency key to this year's championship?

So this weekend sees Formula One head to Korea for round 15 of the 2012 championship. With only 5 race's left this season the championship is extremely close at the top with only 4 points separating Fernando Alonso and Sebastian Vettel at the top of the championship. Both Fernando Alonso and Sebastian Vettel have three wins a piece.

Alonso has failed to finish two race's this season, he failed to finish in SPA through no fault of his own and then he failed to finish once again in Suzuka last weekend. Sebastian Vettel has also failed to finish two race's this season. At the weekend's Japanese GrandPrix three driver's went into the race having finished every race so far this season. The three driver's were Kimi Raikkonen Lotus, Nico Rosberg Mercedes and Mark Webber, RedBull.

However, during the race both Mark Webber and Nico Rosberg failed to finish the race leaving Kimi Raikkonen the only driver left on the grid to have finished ever race so far this season in his comeback year.

The Lotus driver is currently in third place in the championship with five events left this year. The next two event's in Korea and India are new to Kimi however that by no means that he won't finish the events. The Iceman is currently 37 points off the championship lead.
