Hamilton is going to the end, only rain and a SC can stop him now
I’m starting to think that Bottas might not win the drivers championship this year
Lewis wants to stay out, more rain could force their hand.
Bottas is 6 seconds slower on new inters compared to Lewis on his that are what 40 laps old !!
I have really enjoyed this race, one of the better ones this season so far.
they need to pit Lewis now, if its going to rain, take no chances.
Perhaps why Hamilton doesn't want Inters for when the rain hits.
Lewis stayed out, he is gambling with his win if it does rain
yeah but on a couple of laps he should have been OK.Bottas about to be lapped by Hamilton

Lewis is just unreal.
Leclerc hands a podium place to Vettel with two corners to go.
What a race for Lewis sheer class in the difficult conditions, waited for his chance and took it.
7th World Title, fully deserved race win.

Imagine driving the best car in F1 and being lapped by your teammate
Good little tribute on his visor. Great drive for Lewis to be fair
What a way to win the championship
Amazing drive from Hamilton.
What a drive, phenomenal stuff to crown him champion. He’s unbelievable
Nice by Vettel that. Didn't seem forced or begrudging.
Will people stop saying he isn’t a good driver now and he got lucky? He was utter class today.
Classy from Sebastian going and seeing Hamilton, never heard Lewis show such emotion
I didn't realise he had "only" had 234 starts his win percentage must be insane

I have to say, that was one of lewis best every drives. He over ruled his team 3 times and every single time, it was the correct call. At the start of his career, I was dismissive of his talents. But he deserves to be mentioned in the contention for GOATS, without a doubt. This is what separates the best from the good.
Well deserved, lewis.
But now to Ferrari. Amazing race. Its a shame LeClerc locked up on that second last turn. He, behind lewis was the driver of the day for me.

I doubt it, he will be called luck what ever he does.
It was never in doubt Lewis will win this year even before it started. Unless massive change in regulation no one can stop him from winning more than 7.
Feel a bit hard done by that no one took the risk on slicks
Perez really is incredible at tyre management
What an ending
What a race! Action the whole way.
a beautiful advert for f1

Awesome race
Lewis...what can you even say. Nice symmetry to have Vettel make the podium, too. The two best drivers of the recent era. Hamilton though, he's right up there with Schumi, Senna and Prost
Pity for charles, amazing race for him too

Good race, though I Thought we might have a slim chance of seeing a podium without a Merc on it. I should have known better
Incredible drive from Hamilton, showing why he is one of the best ever and certainly the best at the moment. Seb showing his class again vs all those that have been writing him off.
Used to hate Vettel but now he’s one of my favourites.
Wonder if Lewis will get a knighthood now? Surely if he wins 8 titles he will?
A masterclass from Lewis. Jim Clark, Fangio, Senna and Schumacher would be proud.
Ferrari pit crew looking all pissed during the podium ceremony 
They're not hiding the fact that they want Charles on the podium.

And what he has achieved is also just outstanding. Brilliant and fully deserved.

Incredible driver Lewis but he comes across as a bit of a douche. What’s is with the stupid phone American accent - trying to come across cooler than he is. Didn’t he grow up in Stevenage?
