What was the point of putting Hamilton on the softs????
Absolutely pointless by Mercedes.
Mercedes pretty much neutralised a decent end to the race just so they can have another comfortable 1-2 rather than let their two drivers actually race.
Ferrari if they get anywhere close will wipe the floor with them strategically next season.

Now now, we can't let a race break out.
Lewis basically told behave, why not just let them race , FFS thats what the fans want.
Mercedes are a pathetic team, nice way to lose more fans when half of them are already sick of you winning.
Hamilton should really do what he's told but this is all pathetic.
Dr Zetsche and co are in town, makes sense I guess. At least them screwing Lewis to keep a 1-2 is better than his side of the garage turning into his McLaren engineers.
I agree, I am a big Lewis fan but this is a joke.
My thoughts are that after Lewis won the title, they decided that Nico would be in second what ever it took.
There must be a reason why Nico had so much of an advantage , the past few races.
More action on the team radio than the track these days.
Lol if Rosberg's wheel falls off on the last bend.
the fireworks at the end , were better than the race.
Is Kimi at Ferrari next year?
Lewis will be pissed , he wanted to race and was not allowed too.
huge vibrations so I'll do some donutsMy thoughts too. More important for the team owners/sponsors to see a 1-2 rather than provide the entertainment of the two cars racing each other with the possibility of them taking each other out of the race.
To play devil's advocate for a moment, if Rosberg already had his engine turned down and could turn it back up to respond was there really ever any shot at a race for it?
Engine modes don't really come into it, it's why you leave a car out to dry when you have no intentions of allowing them to use the faster tyre. Soon as it was +15 seconds it was game over with so few laps and decent tyre deg for everyone. Just a moronic strategy call or straight up race fixing, either way its shit for the fans.
Dont know about other but Mercedes action with team stratagy have left a bitter taste in my mouth.
Did they give him the option to what Tyre to use, it did not sound like it.
I thought they would of put the Super softs on him.

Toto, I don't believe you.
Fair point, by the time they were on about engine modes it was already too late.
No I dont either, it was quite clear, he was not telling the whole truth.
That was a lot of bullshit, no doubt.
They let Lewis chose? Does he not realise the radio transmissions were listened to?
I like Rosberg less with every race. Will be interesting seeing how he performs when there is something at stake from the races again next season.
EJ is so cringey
Toto - "Rosberg was quicker on track today", I must have dreamt the middle stint where Lewis went from +8 seconds to 0.7 tenths.
Lewis was saying the car was not going in the right diretion in the last few races, after he had won , is that a coincidence ?
I think he was shafted over for Nico.

The question is, was this the last live F1 race we will ever see on the BBC.
Really? I like him and find him funny.
Moving back to the 2015 season, probably one of the worst seasons - if not the worst season I have ever watched (started watching in 2008). The only good races I can remember were Silverstone, Hungary and USA.
EJ , saying that the power base of F1 is now the engine makers and he thinks this is shambolic, do you argee?
Six poles and three wins in a row shows Rosberg has the talent, he just needs to be able to do it when the pressure is on. Hopefully he can bring this form to next year and help make the championship interesting
Suzi's "we'll be back next year, hopefully" didn't sound too promising.
anybody watching the F1 fourm online, Eddie having a proper rant.
Drivers press conference was so awkward.
Red Bull to announce who their engine supplier is next season with a week, EJ seems to think it is Mercedes.
Lotus to go into receivership in a week.
So say BBC.

So cry baby Hamilton got to choose tyres and he didn't know which ones so left it to the team .
He has been crying to choose his own strategy and when he gets a chance he doesn't know
Hamilton IS faster but credit Rosberg for the last few races.
And as I have said for a long time Mercedes are a team full of wankers with Hamilton top of the pile.
Hopefully Ferrari can close further next year.

You're right about Ferrari....wrong about the rest though.
Apart from the bit about Ferrari, all you post says is I hate Lewis and Mercedes.So cry baby Hamilton got to choose tyres and he didn't know which ones so left it to the team .

It was clear to see during the race Lewis was being shafted by his team, he was not given the choice of what compound to use, Toto was clearly lying.
