I feel so sorry for Massa, bloody hell

That was heartbreaking it would be better if the rain didn't come that way!

He's lost his best tilt at the title, with Kimi hopefully back next year

Feel for massa, really do. Deserved it just as much, what a great sportsman. Even 'shh'd' the crowd yesterday when he was walking next to Lewis and they were booing him. Well done Massa, look forward to another great run in next year.

Fair play to him. I'm not looking forward to the wankfest in tomorrow's papers, mind.

I just watched the last couple of laps over and it looked like Glock had car trouble.

He was on dry tyres in the pissing rain

Jeeze

Fair play to Massa, he did everything he needed too, and I feel a little sorry for him. I also feel sorry for myself having to go through that drama! But what a result, and the right man won the championship

Congratulations Lewis, and a big 2 fingers up to all the wankers who will be feeling very bitter tonight!!!

Hamilton deserves the championship but Glock slowing down like that was well dodgy.
It was chucking down with rain on that final corner and it happens, feel so gutted for Massa, he should have won it. Just one corner away from being world champion.

Sorry for Massa's dad too, they way he celebrated and must have broken down in tears after... :(

Fact is Hamilton did bottle it. He was down and out in a race he only had to finish 5th until Glock stopped.

I love Hamiltons dad. Supportive, Involved, Dedicated to his son success.

What so many budding young sports stars are lacking in the UK today.

Great drama. Well done Hamilton, now go out and retain it.

Really bad way to lose for Massa, great driver and a class guy. Hopefully one day he will win it.

He was down and out because he changed to imtermediate tyres expecting more rain to come, which it did, causing Glock to lose a considerable amount of time over the last 2 laps.

:lol: How I love the anti Hamilton Brigade.

Have to say the right man won after Ferrari and Massa screwed up previously, but bloody hell it stinks of a fix really. Not a vintage year for racing, but Hamilton just shaded it.

The replay of the last corner is a joke, Glock basically waved them by

Fair enough the Ferrari guys looking like plonkers celebrating, but really feel for Massa and his brother, to think they had in the bag, only for his dreams to be dashed like this must be absolutely awful feeling.

Hate to see such a humble man lose in this manner.
