The pressure was on for the 2012 Olympics to deliver, and well, it did! We saw home-grown and international athletes taking to the stage to perform in what was arguably one of the most successful sporting events to date.
It was a proud moment for Bradley Wiggins on Sunday as he took the 2012 BBC Sports Personality of the Year award.
With such a great reminder of just how many sporting achievements have been made this year, Flavour and Bwin.com are keen to discover who your sports personality of the year is?
Individuals, teams, paralympians, UK, international… whoever your sports personality of 2012 might be, we’d love you to share this with us. Tweet, Facebook us or leave your comments below. Take a look at some of ours.
