He was banned if you remember, and had to attend a "driver correction programme", his results for the whole year were struck off the records !

Northamptonshire.... the home of f1...
Congrats to Lewis.
You guys like F1? But they use CNC, CAD/CAM and SLA.
All that BS about Nico crashing into him on purpose to give him a flat tyre tarnished the year somewhat I think. So at that speed Nico was thinking if I take out my front wing I will definitely give him a flat. While not doing enough damage to my car to carry on

He was not thinking I am going to get past. (Thats was Never going to be possible)
A number of the other drivers stated as much.

Ain't that the truth.
I was a big F1 nut until 2003/4ish I'd lost interest in the sport long before then though, I was just hanging on in hope. I do watch 5mins when I see it's on. But that just reinforces my belief it's boring.
You want speed, tussles, and on the edge of your seat racing then watch MotoGP, BSB, WSB. you'll not be bothered about F1.
I squealed like a little girl more than once this yr, while watching MotoGP.
It's never bothered me too much who wins, I watch for the racing, and two wheels is where it's at. On the track!

Deffinatly without doubt was done on purpose and he admitted it.So at that speed Nico was thinking if I take out my front wing I will definitely give him a flat. While not doing enough damage to my car to carry on
As it happened I said, it was deliberate he aimed for the side wall of the tyre and also the Monaco slip rd incident, you have to remember to these guys speed is only relative and they drive mm perfect, you only have to watch when they run qually laps on the monitor side by side there is hardly the slightest difference in line between them.
I believe also that as punishment he was told to run up the slip road twice to let hamilton win on the next race. Nico is too good to make that mistake once let alone twice.
I totally agree about the bikes though I watch all sorts of motorsport, the bikes give the biggest thrill without doubt and the old 125 had me screaming at the telly when the commentator said 'I'll give up saying anything' coz the lead has changed 10 times in one lap
you can tell its a good race.GP etc Bike riders have incredible skill and nerves and without all the BS.
Well done Lewis, tough luck Nico, couldn't help thinking though that, in the same vein as Brazil a few years back when Lewis's car suddenly wouldn't change out of 1st gear then mysteriously got better, that Bernie the ringmaster was bethroned in some secret room somewhere like a latter-day Blofeld (complete with white cat on his lap) pressing the 'fail Rosbergs ERS' button on his James Bond-issue stainless steel supervillain sinister-lack-of-labels-on-the-buttons world domination control panel

Well done, though I am not bothered. Too much technology means 'the team' won, he just happened to be the best driver.
Anyway, lets' ask Carl Fogarty ?Where will he be in fifteen years?
For crying out loud Foggy is 'King of the Jungle'. I may be a bit late on this, but I am waiting for QI, and GoggleBox is on in the background.
At least a shortarse f**kkneed footballer did not beat him this time.
