Classy of Lewis, he ain't retiring, he loves this more than Alonso and Schumacher.... while staying in a fast car. But Max and Russell nipping at him in his own team next year, taking it to another level. All you need is a Rosberg one year comeback in a fast car.

Never seen anything like that.
Wow.
Unquestionably the deserved winner over the course of the season though.

Ludicrous decision at the end. Hate to see it decided that way.
Just yet another week this season when the FIA makes up their own rules for 'excitement'.
Haha this is spot on.
Lewis did really well on that last sprint lap with very old tyres.
The fix was in, but the fix was great!
Yeah he seems like a top bloke and I really don’t know why so many people seem to hate him. Apart from, you know.
Yeah seems like he’s winging it at times. The same goes for the general steward calls.
I mean that's just quite sad though. Getting aroused on seeing people upset is not a great quality to have.
Classy from Lewis there.
It does feel like WWE levels of set up this.
I know he’s Mercedes but…
I don’t even like Max, or anyone really, I just wanted someone else to win, like when I watch any sport I have a mostly passing interest in.
Haha it's exactly like that.
I'm still baffled that just happened, "sport". This isn't one.
Only thing worse than a bad loser; a bad winner.LewisToto
By far the fastest car, a lot of luck and still fails. Almost as embarrassing as losing to Rosberg.
Joke, basically scripting/manufacturing an exciting last lap
Masi trolling Toto
I never watch F1 anymore.
That is the most corrupt nonsense I’ve ever seen.

Class interview from Lewis, turned it off after than , I cant stomach Horner.
Max I dont actually mind, think he is a very good driver and will win quite a few WC, just wish he had not own his first one this way !

I honestly still don't get what happened. Was the FIA's decision a correct one?
I am so furious but that made me laugh.
Nah very questionable. Wins races that aren't raced. Gets wins gifted. As shambolic a title as one can win.
Good.
Urghh that's why I don't watch F1. What a farce
Yeah that's the problem, they clearly changed the rule on the fly. That should never be the right decision, it's a joke how it's allowed.
And people wonder why F1 doesn't grow. People like myself who want to love it, just repeatedly gets put off by all this bullshit. It's not even about the drivers, that's the confusing thing.
I don't know how anyone can actually support a team or driver in this sport. It's just so corrupt and driven from off track decisions.
Nice to see Hamilton congratulate Max though. For neutrals, after all the drama that was nice to see. Hopefully Max can show some humility too.
If FIA wanted racing then let Lewis pit and have the same tyre and race, not in a handicapped like this .
Michael Masi is an idiot.
It was never a "race" at the end due to the tyre situation. Was always a walk over for max..the entire 57 laps before hand was a race. Stuff happened. Lap 58, was anything but racing.

what a shit way to win it. forever knowing your championship was handed to you on a plate max is the luckiest man on planet earth
max is the luckiest man on planet earthI'm assuming because all the other cars overtaking would be completely irrelevant to the race, and there was only one lap left. Wouldn't have been time to let all of it play out under the SC
I just can’t see how allowing just those 5 cars to unlap themselves is fair or upholds the actual rules. It seems part of the rules were picked to give us this final bit of drama, which only had one outcome.
Fair play to Max, he’s been brilliant and RB took their chances and played a key role in him winning.

Sounded like someone with a spine.Masi trolling Toto
If Masi has a job next year..........well actually he will probably have a promotion.
“We went car racing”
Well they make the rules up as they go along so kinda?
Every driver will be thinking the same thing. A championship decided thanks to the FIA.
Same, and unless you're Dutch, I've no idea why anyone would be a Max fan.
Can we ban this word, I fecking hate it !
