Just wanted to say congrats to Lewis Hamilton, what a race! How about next season not leaving it to the last half a mile to secure the championship lol :o

Been a Motorsport fan all my life but drifted away from F1 when Schumacher was winning every season. The last two seasons have been phenomenal, makes it worthwile getting up at the crack of dawn to watch the races.

Lewis is a great talent and I have no doubt he'll be one of the all time greats.

Glock was on the wrong tyres. As soon as the rain came down he lost 18 seconds over the last 2 laps compared to the time's he was posting in laps previous. Luckily Hamilton had on intermediates and was able to take him with 1/2 a mile left.

Deffo. Anyone who's ever driven any car round a circuit will tell you how much difference tyre selection makes, but 'dry' tyres in the wet (like Glock had) and 'wet' tyres in the dry both make you slower through corners through lack of grip or excess friction/drag.
