All the bumping and crashing was entertaining and Ferrari's dominance, WOW!!! Brilliant day that was.

Lots of twists and turns throughout the race. After qualifying I had a feeling that both Ferrari would be able to go 1st and 2nd, at least into the first lap, because they were both on the clean side of the track.
I didn't expect Lewis to try and pass Alonso on the outside when he didn't have to. Then I really didn't expect Lewis to lose drive for about 30 seconds later on pretty much ending his championship chase.
However I did figure that Ferrari would have to somehow get Kimi in front of Massa to give him a chance for the title. Felt a little bad for Massa since that was his home track but he's a good team player so he knew what the score was.
Good racing from Kubica and Rosberg along with Heidfeld later in the race.
Boneheaded move from Fisichella to come back on the track right in front of Yamamoto.
I was hoping that Kovalainen was going to be able to be the first rookie to finish every race but unfortunately he crashed out.

Massa was the best team orders gave Raikkonen the win, Hamilton is to young and aggressive as he shown in the last 2 races

it was a great race, shame for hamilton who would of won the title were it not for his temporary gear box problem on the 7th lap. Great drive from Kimi, happy that he won the title, he deserves it because he's been lucky in the previous 2 years.
Glad alonso never came anywhere. Spoilt whinging spanish brat that he is, hope he leaves mclaren and goes back to renault during the summer.
Looking forward to next year, hope hamilton can do it all over again. Formula 1 got exciting again this year, hope it continues.

we waited for a long time till we had a race where three drivers were competing for the title in the last race...I believe it's over 20 years when Mansel, Prost and Senna (RIP) had entered the last race with chances to win the championship...Mansel had a terrible failure of his tyres toward the end of the race and Prost won the championship that year. This race was exciting as well, brilliant tactics for Ferrari, bad luck for Hamilton, weak bolid for Alonso, again the man with least chances became a champion! It was good for F1, it was good for us fans too because that's why we love formula 1.

A great finish to the season. This year's championship title had three contenders and was really a three-way battle. I think Kimi deserves the title and he won it fair and square. Who would've thought Lewis would lose out unexpectedly. But it just goes to show that nothing is certain in F1!!!

manic, crazy race. fair shout to kimi for keeping it real and taking the championship. commiserations to Heiki who would have finished every race this season had he not crashed out. well done to all 22 men who have done a great job for us this year. lets hope next year is down to the wire too, but with a McLaren victory at the end of it lol

It was interesting, at least, right up until the end I hoped and prayed for a miracle to spur Lewis on to win. It just wasn't meant to be I guess. Still he will be back next year bigger, better and brighter!!!

I think this quote by some guy sums it up for me:
"Sunday was a triumph of sport in the face of a lot of controversy and disloyalty. In the end sports justice prevailed."
