      So, we have found the one person not watching the final F1 race of the season?

        Bad luck for Lewis, but as a Finn, I must also congratulate Kimi.

        Well done!
        It was tough season, but it was worth it.

          So, what of the fuel-temperature controversy?
          I doubt it will make a difference, but one never knows.

          IMO, Kimi was long overdue for a world championship title (after all: he is a great driver). A shame that Hamilton couldn't compete due to technical issues though.

            Was there ever a tighter championship though? 110, 109, 109!

              It's looks like Ferrari doesn't need Shumi to win

              Congrats to the top three!

                Ferrari would not have won the constructor's championship if MacLaren had not been disqualified.

                    McLaren wouldn't have got so many points in the constructor's championship if they had used their own technology only ....

                      Errr, and where is your evidence for that?

                        there's no evidence for that, but who really believes that after being losers (sorry for that harsh word) for the last two or three years, all out of a sudden they are the #1 team beating easily Renault and Ferrari? Especially with tyres they had no experience before? In my opinion very doubtful.

                          That is harsh, considering these events happened long after the current cars were designed and made. Alonso was champion last year, remember?

                            Rakido: Do you really think that if there was any evidence to that effect, that McLaren would still be in the championship right now? AFAICS (and admittedly we'll never know the whole truth, and ok, I'm possibly biased) the whole scandal was about rengade action by a couple of individuals not in a position to influence car design, and was probably no worse than goes on up and down the pit lane in what is a small tightly-knit community with frequent personnel changes.

                            You surely saw the way Max Mosely reacted to it. One substantial shred of evidence and McLaren would be history and banned until 2009.

                              And I support McLaren's appeal. It is EXACTLY what Ferarri would do in this position.
