That's what I'm trying to say all this time, he IS a rookie, and if you give all that confidence into a rookie (not giving what he really needs, that is develope himself to take experience), that's what you collected, and all this was caused by only one person, Ron Dennis, who has to be fired for his incompetence.
Raikkonen deserved this, he came close to winning the Championship on numerous occasions.
Although I am please he won rather than Alonso, he did not deserve this title at all
Massa deliberatly blocked and coraled Hamilton at the start which allowed Kimi past. Without this team work - Massa's action was an outside influence decinding what transpired after
but as I say, though not deserving, better him than mr blackmail
FM just gave LH some of his own medicine - all season long LH crossed in front of other drivers at the start. So, nothing to whine about here. Also, if LH was smart enough or experienced enough I should say (and McLaren and his dad had done a better job in preparing him for this race) he would have let it go and settle as 4th or whatever during the first lap and should have driven it home. But he didn't and that's why KR deserves this title very much so - most wins in the season, so makes sense.
No mate, Hamilton preserved his position by blocking as invented by the famous FERRARI driver Schumacher - they dont call it the Schumacher chop for nothing
Right or wrong Schu did it for years
But no what Massa did was not to block to preserve his position, rather he was part of a corralling maneuver. This was a planned action by TWO drivers and nothing like what Hamilton did at all.

Well it's really hard to say. Even if LH kept his 2nd from Kimi there, no way to tell if Kimi would not take him after - like FA did. And also no way telling what else might have emerged in different starting scenario. Maybe LH and Kimi would crash together leaving FA champ. Or maybe LH and FA would crash? Possibilities are endless.
Yeah, if LH kept his 2nd and hasn't got that little picnic in first lap and hasn't got gearbox/hydraulics/whatever problem... or if he finished China within good points... or.
But then again, if FA didn't do that dumbass pitstop act in Hungary (or if LH didn't provoke him to do so) and lost 10 positions, and hasn't crashed in Japan... and if Kimi had less reliability issues during the season... there are billion IFS but they don't mater, only thing that does is what happened, and that is that Ferrari had better car in Brazil, and their drivers worked like a real team - an extra lesson for McLaren - and both their drivers had perfect race with no mistakes. And they are Champions.
