Fantastic race.........this is how it should be!!!

Congrats Hammy........WDC #3

 

It was a great race but what a freaking baby Rosberg. He is a welcome on the podium as a turd in a punch bowl.

He should show some class and set a good example for his kid.

Hamilton's speech is pretty good.

 

It was a decent race. The safety cars saved it by keeping the racing somewhat tight throughout the race. I will say I grow very tired of Leigh Diffey yelling out everything little thing going on. Wish he would shut up or at least calm down a bit or they should dump his ***. He's just too much. His yelling doesn't "make" the racing exciting, it should do that on its' own.

 

WOW!!

 

Finally a race with some action. Every race needs to have mixed conditions to make it so.

WTF is wrong with Rosberg???? I thought he was purposely gifting Hamilton the WDC with his unbelievable off, but I just think he has lapses of focus and can't hold a lead. That was a pretty spectacular overpowering of the rear wheels to go wide.

The way the Mercedes left everyone for dead on the straights is very hard to watch. Will the public stomach anymore Mercedes domination for another 20 races next year?

 

The first corner summed up exactly why Rosberg lost and Hamilton won the WDC. Hamilton clearly pushed Rosberg out wide, not sure if it was lack of grip, or on purpose. Hamilton missed the apex by about 398 feet. Rosberg conceded the corner when they touched wheels... IMHO, Rosberg should have given Hamilton the big middle finger and force the issue by turning in more and making it a bigger incident.

When these two come together, Hamilton consistently comes out ahead. When Rosberg comes out ahead, the Hamilton fans go all crazy and blame conspiracy and aluminum foil hats. Rosberg needs to fight as hard as Hamilton if he wants a chance next year. He needs to beat him up on the track a few times.

If Rosberg was smart, he would take any opportunity he can at the remaining races to punt Hamilton as often as he can, to put fear and doubt into Hamilton. Regardless of points. The season is done. Win it next year.

 

Rosberg had nothing to lose on the first corner yet still figured out how to lose.

 

best f1 race I have seen in a while

 

LOL!! Well said Sir.

 

Did you guys see post-race, when Lewis threw Nico the "#2" cap? Nico's reaction was priceless. What a *****!

 

I think Paddy Lowes expression at the very end was the most telling.

 

Paddy Lowe's?

 

Yeah, was just coming back to change that. Not sure why I typed that.

 

Always been a Nico fan (in large part due to Keke) but his post-race reaction really soured me.....yeah, he knows he blew it but have some class. Don't act like a sulking, spoiled brat of a rich kid, and just realize that, while you are extremely talented, Lewis is even more so.

Keke needs to take him back o' the woodshed and give him a whuppin'

No doubt Rosberg is not Hamilton. What you said and what Hamilton said a few years ago rings true. Nico's road to the top of motorsport was made much easier because of his father where Lewis had to come from the bottom which makes him hungrier. If you want to be where Hamilton is at, then go TAKE it, don't sit there like a little kid. If he's not willing to bang wheels every once in a while then he's going to get run over. It's been said many times that the great ones have a little ruthless streak in them (Senna, Schumacher even Vettel to some extent). If you're "too nice" at that level, then it's not going to happen for you.
