Well, Trulli, on the same tyres as Glock, lost just as much as Glock on the last lap.

Grow up.

If it wasn't for the FIA, Lewis would have wrapped it up long ago.

I find it hard to believe that Glock could lose 18 seconds in 1 lap. Yes, the track was greasy, but it certainly was treacherous! Maybe their friendship from their GP2 days played a part.

It was a good gamble for Glock, almost paid off really if it didn't come on stronger with the rain. But you just need to look at how he went around the final two corners and he was almost sideways with the car sliding around like a shopping trolly on ice. Give it another lap and he'ld of ended up in a wall somewhere.

I am getting sick and tierd of people saying Glock gave Hamilton the win......

He went for a gamble to stay on Dry's, in the last 2 laps he lost time dramaticly...... once those tyres loose their temperature.... its like driving on slicks.

As a real-life racer I can tell you that driving slicks on a greasy track let alone a track that was getting wet quite rapidly (like in this case) is very difficult...

How many of you people that comment on "how can Glock loose so much time in that period?" race before?........

Finaly, if he just let him through...... why did he lose a further 5 seconds just on the straight towards the finish line???

at the time i thought fair enough he was on drys, looking back its wasnt that wet, not as wet as spa.

but i dont think there is any funny business going on, i think he and that car were not fast enough to keep vettel and lewis at bay thats all.

shame but really thats not where ferrari lost the title

Even if he did "give" the spot to Hamilton, it's no different then Massa getting a spot given to him in the last race. Only difference is, it was Massa's team mate who granted him the spot. Same difference none the less though. LEWIS HAMILTON is the 2008 Formula 1 World Champion so, you'd might as well get used to it! P.S. I was glad to see that Hamilton placed his steering wheel back on the car after he got out of it in the paddock. He was to excited and got frustrated with it. God knows he didn't need to given those guys ANY reason to penalize him after the race. Who knows, they may have somehow managed to take the Championship from him over it! LOL! Great job and great year Hamilton!
