You don't know what you're talking about. He was overcome with emotion and unable to speak. Cop on.

I dont think you can call him a bottler the weather conditions in the last 5 laps dictated everything.

I am delighted for Lewis.

For Massa he shouldnt have been even fighting for championship in this race, only for FIA intervention through out the season.

Does anyone think that it was stupid that Hamilton hasnt been presented with the F1 championship trophy on the stage?

Seems like a huge anticlimax and he hasnt been interviewed yet.

Sweet Lord are you for real?
The guy is an arrogant prick.

Exciting finish but i detect some dodgy goings on from Glock and Toyota who handed the title to arrogant hamilton.
I visit quite a few F1 and motorsport forums and ive never seen a driver so hated before in my life.

Ya I dont think giving Lewis the title in front of a wounded Brazilian crowd would have been a good idea.

****. Is there any chance a mod could sticky the fact that Glock's last lap was the same time as the rest of the dry-tyre runners. Christ above.

Yeah right, He just wanted to get back to his garage to see the team, the media caught him before that and he wouldn't say a few words

How many Formula1 World Championships have you won? How would you know what's going through his head, he's just out of a car after a long race, even had trouble putting the steering wheel back on and is instantly mobbed. What would you have done?

I've never seen Lewis need a sit down after any other race he drove in.

I'm sorry but when you've just won the world championship the media own you. You havn't just won it, your country has just won it. Luckily enough his over bareing parent was there to push them away.

Dave!

He won, FestivalFox, dry your tears and get over it.

What a bloody finish to the race/season....... Madness!

Fair play to Massa, he showed alot of dignity

Real as it gets pal. Watched him interviewed many times and comes accross as a genuine fella with the world at his feet delighted for him.

Just because it says it in a forum on the internet doesnt mean its true :rolleyes:

Absolutely true. No ad breaks for a start!
Nobody was robbed today. It sucks for Massa and his family but Hamilton did deserve that win. Oh what a season.

New top gear on at 8 and all.
Get in there Hamilton! You know I was lucky enough to be at the opener in Melbourne and see Hamilton win there. Just fantastic to see this season end like this. What an incredible spectacle.

boo ****ing hoo

Ignore the haters.

I dont like Hamilton, but there's no doubt he deserved it. To have lost it with that rainshower at the end, on a countback of wins etc after all the stewards shenanigans earlier in the year would have been terrible, both for him and for the integrity of the sport.

Best race ever. A well deserved win for Hamilton. Massa was really unlucky but he'll be back next year.

In fairness even most british F1 fans thinks hes an arrogant prick and hate him, he's just not a very likeable person, simple as that

rua1972

I'm gritting my teeth here but congrats to hamilton. I jumped the moment massa passed the finishline, only to fall back when heard , my internetscreen went black i had only sound, Glock spun and gave back 5th place to hamilton. As massa said he did all he could to win the title but it was up to hamilton to loose it. In the end it was up to Glock. I won't be cheering for him for a long time.;)

As for the WC throphy it is handed over to the champion on a FIA night in Monaco, where all the FIA champions are hounered.

I was paraphrasing the likes of the above post and disagreeing with them. I should have quoted directly or at least put my last sentance in inverted commas to make it more clear. Apologies for the confusion.

If people read through the whole thread they would see I was delighted that Hamilton won.

Jeepers when you think of the arrogance of some of the young half-wits you'd come across driving Fiestas and Starlets in day-to-day life, compare that to, as stated above, a young, good looking, rich world champion racing driver who's been groomed by one of motor racing's top teams since he was a kid. If he's arrogant, I hardly think it should be a surprise. Given all of that, I think he's probably not the worst. He came across very well on Top Gear.

If nothing else, at least he's got something to be arrogant about. Cast your memory back to a young Ralf Schumacher who was said to be so arrogant that even Michael noticed - and not much to show for it.

EvilMonkey

McLaren almost cost hamilton the championship with a way too cautious approach to the gp. Fare play to him he deserves it but he should have been fighting for 3rd. Massa was very unlucky and has been the best driver this season only for poor Ferrari reliability to cost him.

Role on next year with the new regs (Hopefully the FIA wont **** them up)

Huggles

I think you misunderstood me, I am defending Hamilton, I too think he came across v well on Top Gear. I have a lot of time for him.

I was highlighting the reasons why "British and other F1 fans seem to hate him"

Jealousy is a terrible thing.

Speaking of arrogance Alonso is surely king of arrogance no?

I hate Alonso equally, due to his antics last year.

For all you Ferrari fans

Frank Bullitt

I said before that i dont really care who wins the drivers championship, I only really cared about Ferrari getting the constructors,but when i saw Massa in the car in parc ferme drying his eyes like that,my heart dropped,the most genuine guy in F1 gets the unluckiest break ever.

You deserve it on Merit Massa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There must be a lot of people watching F1 for the first time by the above comments. A lot of new faces in here today.

What happened at Spa was justified, if you break the rules you get penalised.

With regards to Massa, saying that he was not deserving of the World title is ridiculous. Were it not for two mistakes out of his control with the pitstop error in Singapore and engine failure with two laps to go in Hungary he would have had the championship won before today and 8 wins to Hamiltons 5.

You could also add Monaco to that number as his mistakes there in the wet have now been proven to be the fault of the car, which has only been recently rectified.
So you could say McClaren deserved it more than Ferrari. But Hamilton did'nt deserve it more than Massa.

You could also add Silverstone and Monza to that had Ferrari sorted their wet weather issue sooner
So Massa would have wiped the floor with Hamilton a lot sooner

FrostyJack

Hamilton only deserves the WC by the fact he gathered more points over the season. As stated above and by Martin Brundle, Lewis didn't have the mechical faults that Massa had. Massa won more races and was more dominant despite have a team mate take wins/points off him unlike the bottler hamilton has on his team.

Unlike most I don't think Massa has anymore championships in him. I think this was his best chance. Kimi, Alonso and Kubica will be a lot stronger next year and Hamilton will be there too, unfortunetly.

Pity noone threw a brick at James Allen when he unveiled that flag, what was he thinking, moron.

To paraphrase Basil Fawlty "Don't mention Spa". That saga has been gone through from every angle and should be left alone now.

As for the race, well it did what all sport is supposed to do. It entertained. I was sure that when it rained before the start that Felipe was doomed but as I said in previous threads, he is the most improved driver of the year and drove brilliantly to-day.

I've been watching F1 for nearly 30 years but while titles have often been decided in the final race (Did ITV viewers see Bernie "jokingly" taking the credit for that), I cannot remember such a dramatic end to a championship. I think Lewis did not drive his natural race. He has gotten so much hassle recently about having to drive a more cautious race that when he did, it almost cost him the title.

Note to Bernie: Rain during races at good old-fashioned tracks : GOOD
No rain at boring tracks in Spain or Middle East :BAD

Finally, will all the Hamilton-hate brigade find another forum to use and leave Boards for the genuine F1 fan. Criticism is one thing, but out-and-out hatred of someone because they are either cocky, fast-tracked to success, British, black or whatever reason is wrong.
