Hamilton may still be world champion!
The FIA are investigating alleged fuel irregularities on three of the cars that finished in front of Hamilton. If the allegations are proved and the drivers are disqualified Hamilton becomes world champion.

the F1 championship is never over until various court cases and appeals are over.
still... can't see the FIA doing anything to take the championship away from Ferrari.

It was a fantastic race. I was never bothered who won. (I never am, I just like the racing.) But I've never really liked McLaren people, they always seem so faceless and dull, so I was pretty chuffed when Kimi won it. I thought he deserved it too.
I'm sure Lewis H is a nice bloke - he made a point of speaking to us lowly scritineers in Bahrain earlier this year - but the "Lewisteria" that's gripped the sport this year has really made me support everyone else. I get fed up with the commentators analysing everything that happens on track in terms of "how this will affect Hamilton".

Depressing? I didn't think so. It made me feel proud the way we got stuck in, granted we made some mistakes but SA were the better team, and feel bad or not, we've come a long way since the beginning of the tournament.
Our determination and spirit was uplifting, we fought to the last seconds. That's admirable.

The presence of the England team in the final was a great achievement, considering their poor start: a lesson to all about what grit and determination can do. Shame about the lineouts in the final. Anyway, would the English as a nation have been able to psychologically cope with winning something twice on the trot?
Good that the England football team lost. I have an ongoing dream that because they keep losing everything, public interest will wane and football will eventually vanish from the telly and papers. (No harm in dreaming.)
F1, while it undoubtedly involves some skill, surely cannot be classed as a sport. It's the same as that horse jumping mullarkey and horse racing, where the vehicle does all the work. Anyway, it only encourages brain deaded petrol headedness. In short, who cares?
