As we begin a new year and look forward to a new season, I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who helped out with the site last year.
@WillWood stepped in to help out on several occasions during 2012, writing articles and keeping the site running smoothly. I am extremely pleased to see he has gone on to find work with GPI Magazine.
@JameyPrice photographed testing at the Circuit de Catalunya for F1 Fanatic last year and later had the chance to shoot pictures at the United States Grand Prix. Thanks to him and best of luck for the future.
Dan Selby (@EcwDanSelby) was on hand to edit videos for the site and helped out several times during the season.
Writers
Ewa Zaborska (@Lilla-my) totted up your votes for each Driver of the Weekend and reported back on them throughout the year. Daniel Thomas (@iamdanthomas) did likewise for Rate the Race earlier in the season and Jake Michaels (@jakemf1) has since taken over on that popular series of articles.
@John-Beamer continued his excellent technical features which for the first time included some of his own illustrations.
@AnthonyFrench has begun a new series reviewing the most interested Tweets from each race weekend. We've only had a few instalments so far but I'm looking forward to more during 2013.
And thanks also to @StevenSmith_f1f, @Greg-Morland, @Tim-Ferrone, Jen Campbell and Robert Beck (@Rbeck) who wrote guest articles during 2012 as well.

Moderators
Earlier this year the 400,000th comment was posted on F1 Fanatic. That total doesn't include posts on the forum and comments on F1 Fanatic Live, which gives you an idea just how busy our moderators are kept!
So big thanks to @DamonSmedley, @Olliekart, @Bradley13, @Estesark, Sebastian Pramanick, Arun Srini, LAK, IDR, and Armen Abrahamian for keeping the discussion areas in good order throughout 2012.
