Hamilton is being very insulting...first he throws a hat at Rosberg, then Rosberg asked for a meeting and Hamilton cant be professional about it. Hamilton is a very unprofessional representative for Mercedes:

Insulting? no. Unprofessional? no, not that either.

He is something though..... um... now what was it?

Oh yes

A 3-time World Champion!!!!!!

After all the heartache with Red 5 (who should have been triple champion as a minimum), boy does that sound soooooooooooooooooooooooooo good [:)]

He certainly is.... or at least his brakes are....

Looks like Lewis has gone into end of term mode which should aide Nico's pursuit of 2nd place in the Championship.

What a weird feeling - I'd forgotten what it was like.

I'm shortly to be watching a Grand Prix and....

I'm not stressed, I am not anxious and know I am not going to get to the end of the race in a state of nervous exhaustion - don't get me wrong I'll still be annoyed if Lewis does not win - but for the first time in 2 years, I can at least relax while watching an F1 race, safe in the knowledge that Lewis is WDC......

Well, I was just a little stressed: the only channel I could find covering it (out of the zillion cable channels available) was a Spanish-language channel. (If I'd know I was going to end up in Los Angeles, I wouldn't have taken French in High School, but oh well. . .)

warspite1

True - but it was always going to be a tall order. The Red Bull that year was every bit as dominant - and more - than the current Mercedes, especially in the second half of the season, and by then Vettel had totally destroyed Webber (whose thoughts were increasingly to retirement) and so Vettel was simply in a class of one.

I said after Italy that I would be happy if Lewis could equal last year for race wins. That means he needs to win one out of the two remaining races. Brazil has never been a good track for him - but he excels at Abu Dhabi so finishing with 11 is still possible.

More proof Hamilton is a sore loser and not representing his team like a true professional:

This is one of the many things Lewis does that makes him look like the diva he is and its is why most Lewis 'haters' don't like him. He has no class.

Well that was a strange old season.

Lets hope for something better in 2016. We need McLaren back up at the front - that was just an awful performance.

And good luck to Jolyon Palmer. I was a big fan of his dad - but let's hope junior is a good deal quicker!

Yes, very strange. I'm sick of the turbo sound...get back to the old F1 scream. Rooting for Haas to come up with something interesting...read that Haas and Ferrari were cleared of wrong-doing on aero testing...Haas not restricted because they enter F1 next year:
