Well done Lewis.

Here is a pint raised to you !!

well done lewis, you well deserve it,after just missing out last year. best wishes to your family and girl friend. nice to hear your dad praising the massa family. 2009 season bring it on.

No FIA penalties yet--that''s a relief---MAYBE he''s really done it.
!

Congrats! Way to keep working through the hard times this year, enjoy the spoils of your victory!

F1 is not my favorite racing class at the moment but anyone that wins a world championship should be congratulated...

I just hope his head stays small enough to fit into the helmets from now on...

Well done Hamilton. Youngest ever F1 champion.

Both drivers had some stunning races and some real stupid moments but at the end of the day I think the right driver won. And I think he will have learned a lot this year (well you would hope so...) and there is much more to come.

Unfortunately for Massa I think he's chance has come and gone as I think Raikonen will be right on the pace from the get go next year, and ultimatly he is a better driver than Massa I feel. But who knows.

Well done Hamilton,
The championship was wom by the best driver

I can see the tifosi are already calling for Glock's head for supposedly giving hamilton the spot, but even if that crazy theory were true, it still doesn't cancel out the points given to him in Spa, Fuji, and Shanghai (by the FIA, FIA, and Kimi respectively)

Well F12008C I feel the same. I had this to say in the other thread:

Watch the replays people. Timo clearly had a problem, why on earth would he slow down for Hamilton over Massa??? The car was jinking around out of the corner and his car was very slow down the straight.

Credit where credits due folks. The championship is over a whole season, not one race. If Kimi had not practically come to a halt in China 6th place for Hamilton in Brazil would have done job. It's all swings and roundabouts. Hamilton won. End of.

Oh what joy, fantastic day, we blew the scarlet scum away.....
