tucka Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 massvie f1 fan and what a final race! hamo well deserved it imo, shame about Coulthard crashin on his first lap of his final race aswel! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted November 3, 2008 Author Share Posted November 3, 2008 Well what can I say Really feel for Massa as he did exactly what he needed to do and was teh driver of the race for me, and to be told your World champion when your not must of been heartbreaking.The race was pretty dull to be honest apart from the last few laps, it almost felt staged the way it happend!!It reminded me of the Belgian GP earlier on this season where the heavens opened on teh last few lapsLewis did quite well, when Vettel went past you coudl really see him trying (late breaking and really catching him) but then he couldnt get the power down out the corners. I had my head in my hands the last few corners then I couldnt believe what happened almost lost my voice!! Was just pure luck in the end but well deserved all the same ROFL at the OWNED jpeg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
4EFTE Sol Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 anyone knows why glock slowed downcus in the second to last lap he was doing good lap times and he suddenly slowed down =/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted November 3, 2008 Author Share Posted November 3, 2008 Believe the reason was because he didnt pit and stayed on slicks although it looked a little dodgy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WallaceGlanza Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 I had my doubts that Glock genuinely lost the place to Hamilton but this is probably the best fact to prove otherwise:The final lap times:P5 - Hamilton - wet tyres: 1.26.126P6 - Glock - dry tyres: 1.44.731P7 - Kovalainen - wet tyres: 1.24.945P8 - Trulli - dry tyres: 1.44.800So Glock was actually quicker than his team mate in the same car and with the same tyres on in the final lap, that pretty much proves he didn't let Hamilton pass him.Hamilton thoroughly deserves the championship and he is the best driver out there imo, well done to him.

tucka Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 he was on slicks and spun a lil bit on a courner with it rainin a lil, and he couldnt get power down everyone else was on inters! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cheezeitthedog Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 To be fair had Kubica not decided to ram it up the inside of Hamilton on the penultimate lap then he would never have slipped down to 6th in the first place. Fairly agressive pass in my opinion. Although Hamilton has made much more agressive ones so I cant really complain lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
