YEAHHHHHHHHH !!!!!!!!!!!
He's done it. Well done Lewis and well done McLaren.
World Champion and well deserved especially as it looked like only the Brits wanted you to win. Despite all the plotting against him he did more than enough over the season.

With your head stuck up there does the methane gas not cause a problem.
Schumacher had the sense to know what was required of him. Recall him attempting to take out Damien in order to win. When you have the game in the bag you put 11 players behind the ball not giving your opponent the opportunity to turn the tables on you.
Well done Lewis.

Originally posted by rmackenI totally disagree, until the last corner he could have lost the championship to Massa. If he was not a hothead the championship would have been sealed before Brazil. Nobody on this thread wanted anyone else other than Lewis to be champion but at least we call a spade a spade and he was his own worst enemy in the last few races. That said he would not have been in that position in the first place if he had not taken risks in earlier races. Still a hothead though.
Hamiltons final race rests my case.
Well done Lewis.

Originally posted by trev33If someone has Pitted to change tyres he would have come out of pits BEHIND Lewis. Lewis would have definately been in 5th. They took a gamble and it didn't pay off. Either way Lewis would have finished 5th and he did so. He was not lucky.
what, only got the 5th he needed because someone picked the wrong tyres and make a balls up of the last lap?
nice way to win a world champ coming 5th thought dont you think? 😉
