not the season, earlier in the year he was driving like a cock, throwing away good point scoring positions. But yes, towards the end of the year the old Alonso was back, the guy he was before he was world champion, the guy who was clearly going to be world champion, and will be again.

I think McLaren may have picked there drivers for next season.
Hamilton & Glock? :laugh:

Now, now. That's how rumours start :laugh:
Never ever seen a final lap like that! Honestly thought Hamilton had blown it, then when I saw Glock's car on that 2nd to last corner, it was...well, just lost for words moment.
Fecking, absolute top drawer :)
Only downer is that I so bloody wish I had put another bet on Lewis at the start of this season :( Thanks to that 'gearbox gremlin' (!) from Brazil last year, I lost a 4 figure payout :cry: Anyway, that's old news...
Good darts kid :agree::)

oh deary me Moggs. :bored:
Hamilton. Deserved it last year, deserves it this year. Total legend.
Hats off to Massa, top bloke. He'll get one (or more) at some point.
Brazilian booing - for what in particular? T*ss bags.

so picture this - your Brazilian tonight, what would you be thinking?
i'm not knocking Hamilton, but lets hope next year he leaves daddy at home
i've never been a fan of Mclaren, back in the 80's 90's etc. and apart from a weird lapse in the mid 90's when i suported Hill :crap::rolleyes: i've been a Ferrari fan for years even when they couldn't build a car! LOL never suported my "renault", always gone for the dream car i never want! :laugh:
so i'll stick with my team, and hope next year they win both titles!

crazy! i was watching it down the gym after i finished the work out and left while they were half way round the last lap, got in the car and switched to talk sport on the radio, i was like WTF!
top darts tho, never seen anything like that before :)
when i wake up tomorrow i wouldnt be surprised to see mclaren thrown out down to another decision by the stewards lmao:laugh:

As for his Dad, and forgive me for bringing golf up, Tiger Woods had his father with him at all times until he died and in this day and age I think thats a good thing! These guys are special and with the modern world being like it is with the press etc and demand for attention, I think a family member as a mentor/guardian is a good thing. Im sure Ive read about how families are breaking down...well, in this case families are strong and encouraging some great individuals to do what they were born to do :)
Hamilton, a legend ?...:laugh:
Of course he is...:laugh:

not my work, but funny as f***
ahahah, brilliant stuff Paul.
Moggy - I would be absolutely gutted that my driver hadn't won the championship. I don't remember booing anyone who won fair and square over a Brit. As for supporting Ferrari, no issue there, they are a cool team.
Spooky - he's the youngest ever champion and he has the most points at the end of the season. That's it.
The lack of 'fair play to the lad' on here from the boo boys is a poor show tbh.

Excellent race again rain makes it exciting a really big hint here how to improve F1 and reduce costs, get rid of the aerodynamics.
Lewis has won that championship 3 times over the only prob with yesterday is that it will encourage Bernie to continue massaging the results.
As for the Silver Ferrari last year. Do not forget that Ferrari deliberatly cheated with a moveable floor. A clear deliberate premeditated hard to detect cheat which I would put on a level with Toyotas hidden enlarging inlet to the turbos on their rally cars that saw them banned. McLaren just had a rogue employee.

As did Ferrari... but they wernt punished for that... takes 2 to tango.
as far as I am aware NO evidence has been shown to show McLaren actually did anything wrong,.they paid the fine , took the punishment but all without any FIA evidence.....guess if your big enough to play poker on that level then you can bluff without REAL evidence....LOL..
theres always been some sharing of knowledge in F1, look at how cars all look different at the end of a season to how they start......
there will always be driver knowledge passed on as they change teams,etc...
What an amazing race! I doubt we'll ever seen anything like that again.
I think Hamilton totally deserved the championship after all he's been through this year ( Spa bull**** for example) I must say I didn't think he'd got the title on the last lap until I saw Glock struggle on the dry tyres - incredible! I think this will be just the start of something hugh for Lewis Hamilton.
Full marks to Massa who is still in Kimi's shadow (no idea why?) he's certainly come a long, long way in his F1 career. Poor showing from the Braziain crowd though...
Tip for a future WC: Vettel.
:cool:
What was the deal with Glock 'slowing down' near the end? :confused:

Says it all;)

Really doesn't.. Have you ever driven in the wet, racing, on slicks?
Exactly Minty, i'm watching the last lap and Vettel is in front of Hamilton and i'm thinking "Well it's over Hammy!" and then Glock gives it the ol slow one!! I think his telemetry needs checking, i bet there's nothing wrong with his motor and no need to slow down!

There IS a difference between slowing down big and still giving it beans, twitching the rear end.
As Glock said in an interview.. He was just trying to keep it on the tarmac. And as Vettel said (who obviously wasn't giving Hamilton any special treatment).. It was really bad conditions. He said it was really hard to even see who he was racing.
I'm sure that if this is true, Glock would have more brains than to be giving it beans and end up facing the wrong direction. In reality he would be taking it easy, so close to the finish line, with the hope/potential to score some decent points.
These were two times compared from the last lap...
Glock - Toyota - Dry Tyres - Last Lap: 1.44.7
Trulli - Toyota - Dry Tyres - Last Lap: 1.44.8

What a crock of sh*t. Earlier in the season it was proved that there's a 30 second difference a lap when on dry tyres on a wet surface compared to intermediates.
Glock's last lap was 28 seconds slower than his previous one.
This is all feckin academic anyway. Glock could have come in for tyres like everyone else and if he had, Hamilton would have been in front of him in the same way he was before it started to rain. In the event, Glock gambled and it very nearly paid off (but it didn't). Big deal. The joke that Glock was paid is very funny, the idea there is some truth in it is simply baseless.

Hope Bruno Senna gets an F1 drive next year. Would be great to see another young, raw talented driver that he is on the grid.
If he's half as good as his uncle, next year's F1 is gonna be the lick :cool: :)

Third time in.. It's not as funny.
I'm confused as in an interview immediately afterwards, Hamilton said himself that he was told in his earpiece that he needed to overtake Glok so he did. Unsure if that means Glock was told to LET him pass or not...more than likely methinks

Surely that's not that confusing, even for a girl :p
He was told he had to overtake Glock, because he did have to overtake Glock, or he wouldn't have been champion.
Martin Whitmarsh said in interview after the race that their GPS signals showed that Glock had slowed massively, and Hamilton was on course to catch him before the end of the lap. So they had to make sure he passed him, and not sat behind him.

I didn't mean I was confused that he was told to get past and I'm pretty damn sure he knew without being told, that he needed to get in front of him. What I'm saying is that with his wording in the interview, he seemed to give the impression that they were working together in the situation to ensure that Hamilton won.

Well no, with the rain, the amount of people he was overtaking and the heat of the moment, I doubt it was that clearcut that he knew what position everyone else was in, and who exactly he was overtaking when
