Straw Poll: 2008 wrap-up
Autosport's Formula One editor reports on the mood-swing of the F1 press corp and the talk of the media centres over the course of the 2008 season
The 2008 season wasn't short of a story or two. Granted, there wasn't anything on the colossal scale of Spygate for the media to get its teeth into, but there were plenty of big hitting stories and slow-burning classics to keep the assembled journalists happy as the season went on.
As ever, some of the stories ran and ran - such as the future of Fernando Alonso - while some, such as the Max Mosley scandal, emerged like a bolt from the blue.
