Whatever, as long as they let Hamilton win. Fair play doesn't live here anymore.

The McLaren's paddock looked pretty depressed, huh?

Isn't it great when you cheat, lie and steal and you still don't win? Doesn't it make you look like a total ass :)? Even Hamilton says that he doesn't want to win like this.

That "McLaren" at the top looks like an F40 with a Mercedes badge photoshopped on it.

Hamilton will win, maybe next year, maybe the year after but its a certainty that he will win eventually (so long as he stays at a team with cars capable of allowing someone to win the title).

Personally, I wish Alonso would find another team. If he does not like it at McLaren and feels that his position was undermined by a "rookie", then it was not the right team for him. Hamilton has been at McLaren for way longer than Alonso.

However, if your interested in racing then F1 really isn't that great. I was a Marshall at Silverstone and Donnington for quite a while as one of my hobbies and GT racing, F3 and Truck races are far more entertaining. In F1 the drivers are almost perfect and nothing interesting really happens. In the other races, omg... carnage.

Try standing for example as a Marshall at Donnington on the first bend off the straight at the beginning of a GT race or F3000. Now, that teaches you how to run bloody fast...... and avoid various unattached car parts (and sometimes human parts) moving through the air at high speed....

(note: Missed the sarcasm of the picture... it went straight over my head I am afraid. At least I feel happier now that I know its an F40)

You're telling ME. I used to watch F1 in the 80's and 90's, now it's boring beyond words. Also, it's so typically Italian to be a Ferrari supporter and I hate that cliché.

That said... McLaren's investors sold their mothers to the devil to have a British driver win the championship, no matter how talented he is. After all, Alonso was still a few points away from the title, but no one seemed to care, it was Hamilton or nothing.

I also don't like Raikkonen that much, he was a huge disappointment, his Miss Scandinavia wife is much better.

I actually lost track of it all when I stopped marshalling. I saw a pretty awful death and it kinda put me way off racing.

I only watched this year because of Hamilton however I did not expect him to become World Champion. I was absolutely 100% sure that in Brazil he would fail and I was right.

I didn't expect Raikkonen to win though. I was confident that Alonso would be Champion for the third time making him one of the only drivers to have won back to back three times.

If Alonso had concentrated on his driving and not worried about Hamilton I think he would have won. I believe the rivalry this year was too OTT and that was McLarens downfall and ultimately why they no longer have a World Champion in their stables.

No one in the UK really gives a monkeys about F1 racing or any other sport apart from football. Unfortunately, were shit at football so we will all go around depressed and sad :)

I was a child in the Gilles Villeneuve era (whose poster was the only one in my room). After him Ayrton was my hero (yes I love Ferrari, but he was great).
It is true: Formula 1 is not the same one anymore, and I fear that after the spycase it will be even worst...Pilots are not counting anymore (put Lewis or Kimi in a minor team...) and it is all about biz.

Hope to see nice and fair competition next year (in any case for this year I can state: God Exists and is a Ferrari Supporter...).

Couldn't agree more 1: Yes, Alonso was not treated in a fair and equal way to Lewis
