Chill ;)

I used to be an F1 fan, but it lost its only true driver - Shithead Schu - a couple of years back.

The FIA needs to do something big, as its started going away from a spectator sport, and will become a closed shop, not quite in the spirit of other forms of motorsport. That will be bad news.  Shame the 'other' championship never got off the ground.

My other annoyance is the 'Hamilton Factor' - in true Brit style, everyone is now into F1, Lewis this, Lewis that.  Now I'm all for supporting the Brits, but its hesteria around him.

Just rewatched a replay of that bit, wasn't raining any harder at that point than previous lap, so maybe he had a breakdown, but enough power to get up that long hill. His times appeared to be good up until last 2 sectors  :-/

Was an F1 fan since the 70,s got very disillusioned since the loss of senna,and technology ruining the spectacle,buit I do believe that Hamilton is  a breath of fresh and a real genuine racer.
hopefully all the new regs. planned will start putting the sport back on the right track ie, plenty of wheel to wheel racing,and if it does ,I reckon Hamilton will excel.

Agree that Hamilton seems to have the same desire/fire to win as Schumacher (unlike Button/Coulthard/Hill, dunno about Davidson as he never had a decent car), who in turn had the Senna/Prost, and Mansell to an extent, desire.

I'm with you on that. Glock did the honours for Lewis - and I think he knew that with Vittel.

What remains is that we have a British champion. That's good and I am chuffed with that.

MotoGP starts on April 12th BTW. Much better to watch than F1  :y

thank god its over for ITV's coverage!

Useless idiots who present it (apart from Martin Brundell)

Look forward to it back on the BBC
They wont get Walker back though  :'(

It needs someone with enthusiasm, be interesting to see what Richard Hammond brings to it all

Depends what the backup ones are like, they need an ex driver on board. Brundells insight was always good, and shut up that clown which is James Allen.
