Im sorry, but he lost 20ish seconds in the last 3 corners, and im not buying it. Say what you will.

Lets see him win again, especialy against fernando. The true champion was Felipe Massa. Hes more patriotic and has much better fans and a full country behind him, unlike lewis who has very few friends and is a completely unworth champion.

Oh, at Phil. 3 drives out the whole season. Monaco doesnt count, because he only suceeded from hitting the wall. thats a well known fact. Now, how many penalties has he had? 6. All of them deserved.

All lewis hamiltons point losses was through driving errors, and stupidity. felipes was through 94% reliability failures and team failures. He screwed up in Austalia and Sepang. Lewis screwed up in nearly every race.

He has a long way to go before he drives like a champion. That title is worthless and undeserved.

But still. lets see him do it again against fernando. He'll run home crying to daddy boy.
Say whatever you want .. :wave:

We can go on counting as Kimi's unreliability in 2005 makes FA an unworthy champion .. Would you buy that ? Similarly i am not going to buy your argument.

Massa drove a perfect race in Brazil .. No one says no, that din change the situation. Look at Spa & Japan .. He got away .. If you count here and there and try all sorts of accounting nothing is going to change .. Lewis won Flag:##

You missed a point .. Everyone wants Lewis to start in a Minardi and rise through to Mclaren or Ferrari ...

For me, Lewis didn't deserve that. He wasn't good in the race, didn't deserve 5th while Massa just thrashed everyone. Well done to:

Massa
Alonso
Kimi
Vettel

and even though I don't think he deserves it....Lewis...hopfully you don't win next year. :laugh1:

If you slowed down (which I doubt), shame on you Glock!

ITV were rubbish again after a breif spell of being alright. Missed the poduim, and press conference. But they did admit the obvious, they're biased. They thought everyone watching wanted Lewis to win, well they thought wrong.

I might post more a bit later.

hey SF, haven't heard from you for a while. Yeah, Massa was supreme, Hamilton nowhere, but the 1 point gap again sums up a great season. The last lap/last corner move sums up the whole season, so unpredictable - so close, shame the rules are changing next year.

So funny, Ted Kravitz (3 laps left) says: "I'm not meant to be here, I am in the pits illegally, but who cares, its our last race"

Go watch Spa and Japan, where Massa hit Lewis and was gifted a point by the stewards after Bourdais-gate, ok? :roll::
been busy with work man .. but thx for the ask brother :) .. man i was celerbrating and yelling when vettel passed hamilton but glock runied everything and came from no where .. felt really sorry for Massa .. but again Ferrari is the one who responsible for that loss .. engine faliure and pit mistake made then lost the WDC :( .. just can't believe what happend at the end of last lap

This is how your boy Lewis won the championship.
Reminds me of Mika Hakkinen's first win. Collusion between teams.

It was both dry...and Glock took a different racing line...closing immediately AFTER Lewis went past.

When I saw Vettel get in front of Hamilton, my stomach dropped. Massa did an excellent job, but it wasn't meant to be. I don't know what the hell Kubica was doing. Unfortunately all I got to see was the last five laps. But man those were some amazing laps. Congrats to Hamilton! Through trials and tribulations he overcame. So I say good show ol' boy.

Yeah, but only a small fraction of their audience are die hard F1 fans, the rest will be wanting Lewis to win by a mile, winning every race. Onwards to the BBC.

The 5 months of oblivion has begun :sad:
