Been so busy at work the last few weeks and only just seen the news! So happy for Jenson. Am looking forward to seeing McLaren in action next year.

Always felt that Rosberg was humble & honest. Had Rosberg won the championship, don't think Hamilton would've reciprocated the same way as he has a bigger ego than Rosberg. In that scenario, their friendship would've never come on track again. Rosberg was a thorough gentleman today & didn't deserve...

I agree with the comments on this thread, but I honestly think he hasn't behaved as badly as everyone makes out... however I thought 'aww' when he said he wanted to race to the end. Well done Nico, better luck next year!

littlesparkle

I really love the guy, in my book he is far more likeable than his opponent, but he has been walked over by Hamilton. He does not have pace even to follow him, let alone attack him. Second this post. As much as I never have been able to abide Hamilton (from the day he arrived in F1 I might add, not...

Kimi has indeed had a horrible year. That's not really a question. But you know what, as a fan, he's awesome! Plain and simple. Modern "Kind of Spa". 2007 F1 World Champion. Last Ferrari F1 World Champion. Wheel-to-wheel dogfighter. Entered F1 on very little experience. Has raced open wheel cars, r...

Get in Nico. Fantastic qualifying session. I just hope he keeps his head come tomorrow!

Merc have Hamilton and no need for Alonso (or his hefty price-tag).

They also have Rosberg

How about Merc test driver next year, with a race seat 2016? I wouldn't mind seeing him at Merc, I think that because of the way Merc have ran away with everything this season, it's not been as exciting. Yes I know Seb did the same, but there was some variety. It seems like the only driver capable ...

Alonso hasn't been exciting since he last won a WDC. Really?. If exciting for you is only when a driver win the title, then fine, otherwise.... seriously?. Erm.. no, don't twist my words. I said Alonso has not been exciting since he last won a wdc. Sure, he has had a couple of good races in the las...

If he does take a sabbatical, then how many people out here will not watch F1 in 2015? Why? Alonso is a great driver but his entertainment value is in minus figures. There are no drivers in F1 that could leave and make me want to stop watching. Agreed. I was upset when Kimi left in 2010. I just wat...

I will be really surprised if it's Mercedes. I am really looking forward to finding out though! Please don't disappoint us, Nando!

littlesparkle

I think Nico has lost a lot of confidence since Spa, especially since he has been booed a lot by fans and that public telling off by Toto. I also can't help but think he wants to prove himself and wants to win the title so badly, he in the end cocks up for trying too hard. Maybe if Nico doesn't win ...

Rosberg is so lucky he is driving this rocketship. Stuffs up royally and goes from last to second. Disgusting. This isn't racing. But when Hamilton does it, it's an amazing drive? Totally agree Angus. Such double standards. I can't see how leading the race from the start to the finish with no press...

On BBC Lee McKenzie just said Vettel was moving to Ferrari... I've just got up after doing a nightshift so head might be fuzzy but am sure I didn't just imagine her saying that?!

I love all the speculation, but it can be disappointing if nothing happens at the end of it all. These cryptic comments from Vettel and Alonso will probably turn out to be that they are staying where they are

I hope Jules, in his recovery, will take some time to read some messages on different forums, including this. So, Jules, I am glad that you may read this one day. It means you just had you first victory in F1, the one that counts the most. Be as brave as you were at the steering wheel and let me te...

I personally would be very surprised if Merc swapped Hamilton for Alonso, but it's really swapping one trouble maker for another. Alonso does appear to have reigned himself in since going to Ferrari though... who knows? I enjoy the rumours and excitement though

Just watched the video. Poor Jules. Can't begin to imagine what was going through his mind as he approached the JCB. I have never watched a race and felt like that before. I didn't start watching F1 til 1997 so missed Senna. Which I am thankful for. I just hope Jules recovers and we never have to se...

It is very exciting, however to say that Fred is pulling the strings of the F1 paddock is all a bit silly - he probably has no idea what the heck he is doing next season, he's not actually the be all and end all of F1 and he might find himself having to take a sabbatical because no one wants him or ...

Nico did complain of handling problems after changing to inters - the car became rather 'over-steery' according to him. In wet comditions one might favour a more understeering car; this may explain why he was off the pace compared to Lewis (and only just holding off the RBs on pace). Edit: from tha...

I want to make an observation here. They got him out of the car very fast for a head injury, normally in the situation of a head injury it takes a while to remove the driver but not in this case. I fear that was only the result of the severity of his injuries. I'm seriously concerned about Jules. I...

That might explain him being quicker in qualifying but the speed trap figures are identical so that suggest the two of them running the same downforce Thanks Pokerman.

Hate to say it but can't see Nico winning this WDC. Getting sick of hearing he was 'outclassed' again today - his tyres obviously weren't holding up for him and he was complaining of downforce - had the weather conditions been fine and his car and tyres ran as good good as his teammate's, he could ...
