ERS failure for Rosberg. Looks like Hamilton is as good as champion already.

Wow, did they put nitrous oxide on Hamiltons car? What a start!

Very interesting start - on the replay, he actually put the hammer down very sensibly and didn't wheelspin. Amazing start! I love that Hamilton won't settle for second.

Woohoo! And Massa takes second.
It's not over till it's over. Rosberg can still win the WC. Hamilton has to still finish the race.

Rosberg failed miserably this race.

At one stage I thought maybe Lewis would give Massa the win as return for 2008, but ja was a mere golden thought.

And so awesome for Willams double podium.

Actually I think Rosberg was doing the right thing with what he had - a poor start. If he could have done what Massa did, he might have taken the win... and can you imagine how much of a nailbiter it would have been had Massa in 3rd been chasing down Lewis in 2nd?

I wonder if being congratulated over Team Radio by Prince Harry is a step closer to Sir Lewis :)
Great season, personally I don't mind the noise (or lack of) and enjoyed the technical race.

Now Lets see if Button keeps his seat.

Next Year lets drop the silly double points but add a point for Pole, that would have made the final a lot closer.

He said raceism... i.e. are you a raceist - you prefer one racer over another. It's in the dicandgerry! :p

Apologies for misreading his post and getting my nose rubbed into the ground.
I could not get a google definition for both words i.e. raceist and dicandgerry. Please inform.:confused::D

Not a bad year's work if you win a WC after suffering 3 DNFs (another at the hands of your teammate perhaps dileberately) compared to your teammate's 2.

Congratulations!

but you need to cut down on mistakes because Alonso will be driving a faster car than the F14t next year.
