Lewis has got it wrapped up. Too many olympians mean a split vote.
Hamilton will get it. Deserves it too.
I will be voting for Hamilton, not every year you get the youngest F1 World Champion ever come around.
Was that the Premiership and the European Cup i saw ?
Yeah they were there also Ryder cup, Wimbledon title and and Spains euro cup.

Eleanor Simmonds at 14 rightfully wins Young Sports Personality of the Year award after winning 2 golds at the paralympics.
Phil Neville - classed as a local hero of Liverpool. Who would have thunk it ten years ago.
Shame Liverpool couldn't send one of there current players considering the awards are held in there home town so they send Ian Rush

Why the HELL was Ronaldo not among the overseas nominations? He scored 42 goals and gave the best performance over a season that England and Britain has seen for years, and he doesn't even get a mention?
To be honest i'm quite suprised Phelps ( only 8 gold medals), didn't win it
Betting suspended, Adlington was still favourite.
Surely Lewis should win this year

Well done Hoy, but it doesnt seem right.
Surprised to be honest, I thought Lewis Hamilton would have been a comfortable winner.
Well done Chris. Well-deserved.
Bet all the Hamilton fan-boys are gutted.

So we can't be Hamilton fans without being fan boys hey? If you can't win it after being the youngest World Champion ever and in the most dramatic circumstances then he probably never will.
why dont you like Hamilton?
Can't believe that result. Hamilton really deserved it - youngest ever F1 winner, and the way he never gave up in Brazil.
Gutted.
Gutted.
