I saved him for my last top tier driver pick, just so I could root for him at his home GP this weekend.

OMGIt was Hamilton's to lose and he did just that. Could have just run around not banged his equipment up, but no, had to fight and then bang his car of the curbs too hard (supposedly) and break his electronic clutch control or whatever...
I do think they should have let the Ferrari drivers really battle for the race win, but oh well. No team orders, but come in a few laps too early and we will have a 2 second too long pit stop waiting for you... :rolleyes: At least Alonso ended up third for the race and season.

Not so fast!!!!!!!! Sauber BMW and Williams cars all failed post race inspection, due to a fuel issue. FIA is meeting right now to decide what will happen. If they are excluded, it will shake up todays points and change the championship results!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, looks like an update came as I typed above...No change on points, it looks like the fuel irregularity was only in fuel temps from the rig ???? WTF??? Never heard of that one before.

But deciding the driver's champ in a courtroom would have been the most fitting end to the season! How dare the stewards decided to let the on-track racing determine the result, this is F1!

http://www.crash.net/motorsport/f1/n...his_-_yet.html So, yeah. Anyway, the race was great. I'm am a little sad for Hammilton (if the decision of the stewards stands up in arbitration) but I am extremely happy for Kimi. He finally did it (if the decision of the stewards stands up in arbitration)

As has been said before, Kimi is THE MAN!!!
Yeah, it's rough that Hammy worked so hard, and was on his way to an unheard of season, but sometimes that's the way the cookie crumbles.

Also, everyone knows you punt your championship by messing with your brake bias in a tunnel. Frickin' n00bs.

I didn't realize they used Windows Vista on F1 cars... The whole reboot your car joke from years ago has come true.

Okay, now it was just a mis-quote:
http://en.f1-live.com/f1/en/headline...28153747.shtml Hammy says his mistake was just his poor driving that dropped him to 8th at the start of the race... the gearbox failure was purely mechanical. 'Course, with spin on every story as strong in F1 as it is in politics... I'm not sure what to believe. But given the author of the original story saying Hammy hit the neutral button is admitting to have misquoted Lewis, it's probably true that there was a real mechanical failure.

Now here's a silly season article for everyone. It's pure speculation, not even a hint of a rumor (I don't think anyway)
But, Fernando Alonso to drive for Lexus Williams. http://www.crash.net/motorsport/f1/f...s_a_lexus.html
