Okay, that's season over, then.

INB4Conspiracy theorists claiming "Nico threw that away on purpose..."

Did Rosberg deliberately let Lewis lead so he could pressure him From behind?

You called it @niky !

 

[PsuPepperoni]

So he can give him the ol' wing-to-the-tire

No.

 

[Chris123]

Alonso just an absolute beast.

 

[Brutaka]

There are few things I wake up in the the morning on weekends to do, watching racing is one of them

Nah, his start was rubbish, had a lot of wheelspin and Hamilton could elimintar said wheelspin with quick upshifts

 

[craigatm]

That was fantastic forward vision by Kvyat. It's almost as if he knew what was going to happen two corners before. Great pass!

 

[miata13B]

Looked like Rosberg bogged down his start. The fun pedal progression from his start seemed sluggish almost. I don't think by this point in the season Rosberg would be sluggish off the line like he was.

After watching the replay it looked like he only hit 180 kph before the first corner while Lewis hit a tad over 200 kph.

 

[20832]

Rosberg had a lot of wheelspin off the line

 

[Legro]

Alonso can't get past Caterham.

 

[craigatm]

Oh calm the 🤬 down Fernando! Stevens was racing you for position!

 

[Nooboogering]

Alonso does a drive bye on Stevens

 

[Tyger]

Jenson driving out of his skin yet again, but I fear the worst for him, he was very downbeat yesterday. Ron Dennis, you are a moron.

 

[Liquid]

Bang. There you go. Title goes to Hamilton.

 

[mustafur]

Ferrari clearly signed the wrong Redbull Driver.

 

[Ninners]

Massa has been catching Rosberg by 0.5 for 3 laps now.

 

[craigatm]

Hulkenberg under investigation for forcing Magnussen off track. I did wonder when I saw the incident, but I wasn't sure if Nico had a car down his inside. But now we know. I hope he gets some kind of penalty for it to be honest because I think that is a dirty tactic. It's just a shame in my opinion that they don't crack down harder on the practice.

 

[mustafur]

Did Vergne move under braking last lap when Ricciardo attemped the move at the end of the straight?

 

[mustafur]

Koby not doing Bad in the Caterham tbh.

 

[Nooboogering]

@mustafur Couldn't tell but seeing how it's pouring of rain in London,would like to see some rain.

In Abu Dahbi? Impossible

 

[Nooboogering]

In Abu Dahbi? Impossible

lol true

 

[niky]

A World Champion Choo-choo train going on behind the leaders.

Shame that's the most interesting thing happening on track at the moment.

 

[craigatm]

Of course you can get rain in Abu Dhabi! It definitely isn't going to happen today though.

 

[Legro]

Of course you can get rain in Abu Dhabi!

Well that's definitely more likely to happen than snow in Abu Dhabi.

 

[niky]

"Daniel, don't let Bottas through... but don't hold him up enough to ruin your race... errh... figure it out. Good boy."

 

[craigatm]

The guys on McLaren's prat perch must find Ron Dennis rather imposing standing behinding them, watching their every move. He's like a school headmaster; I'm surprised he doesn't come with a whip!

 

[miata13B]

Well that's definitely more likely to happen than snow in Abu Dhabi.

Actually it snows everyday in Abu Dhabi

[Legro]

Just imagine Hamilton saying this to Nico after this race "You know what I and your dad have in common... world drivers championship".

So...Bargin Hunt's on BBC2 in fifteen minutes!
