I've seen the owners car racing hillclimb several times. It's absolutely ballistic! 0-60 in less than 2 seconds, and road legal!!!

Leaves all those Scoobies and Evos (yawn) looking like they're standing still! GpB - that was PROPER rallying!

[Apache]

this is it. Seen this car several times, and sat in it in the pits at Prescott when he reckoned it was running around 750bhp and weighed about a bag of spuds!

Sweeet.

[Woodzie]

I should take up betting on Grand Prixs....as a Ferrari fan I am one happy puppy....but I also did have this funny feeling specially after the rugby result last night. (and yes I am Welsh...but also half english)

PS.. I do feel sorry for Lewis but his time will come without doubt he is a truly great driver, it was Mclaren who lost him the championchip not him. Loved seeing Ron Dennis squirming after the race...pillock.. I dont like the man never will, always comes over as a smarmy git....reminds me of a boss I used to have.
PPS.. Must admit I can now see why they called Kimi him the Ice man...that is one cool driver. Class act, after all he did win 6 Grand prix to every body elses 4....
PPPS.. Massa is also one to look out for next year did a great job today, would have won the race on any other day.
PPPPS.. Think ill go and have another Stella..hic hic !!!! Ferrari, Ferrari, Ferrari
PPPPPS...I raced against the ex Hanno Mikolla S/W Quarto in 1987 head to head with a road leagal Turbo Charged Riley Elf...in the 100th Hilclimb at Gurston Down ....you would never believe the result...

apart from not having raced against hanno do dah i could have written the above myself - lets be honest in such a tight battle any of them "deserved" it, just good news the best man got it !

Anyone heard the 10 o'clock news tonight ?

Apparently the FIA might be investigating fuel irregularities in the BMWs, that could mean that they would be excluded, if so Hamilton DOES get the title !!

FFS!!!!

What ever happend to just driving, overtaking and winning?

Too many computers, too many pitstops, too many sponsors to kiss ass, too much money going to the drivers, and that little fecker Ecclestone!

F1 isn't a sport anymore, it's a business the same as football!

[adm_sx]

This is all i can find on stewards inquiery...

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport

on the news ticker

MOTORSPORT: Stewards investigating fuel samples given by BMW and Williams at Brazilian Grand Prix. More soon.

I'm not sure i'd like Hamilton to win it like that, although I was 100% behind the lad today. I just hope he remains down to earth and remembers his roots infuture.

I too am a Ferrari fan, but have slightly shifted allegiances this season due to UK having a driver with skill for the first time since Mansell. (Hill doesn't count - a championship by the skin of his teeth when Williams had the best car by far)

Mansell was the last British driver with the hunger to win and the never say die attitude that F1 drivers used to need. Schumacher had it, Senna had it, Hunt had it - I think maybe Hamilton has it too.

He has that 'red mist' factor that all of those above had which sometimes costs races, but often wins because they will take that final step, and take the risks.

Today Hamiltons risks didn't pay off, and the red mist in the first lap went against him, but McLaren played a big part in losing this championship for him. He'll be back.
