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.
I'm fully aware of MS believe me.
Um, your interpretation of FM's motivation in his starting procedure is exactly that: interpretation, inference, not based in fact or knowledge.
yeah the better of the bad options won - although dissapointed, it is nothing like how I would have felt if the Spaniard had won.
And though I think Ferrari cheated the win in the race, I dont want ANY kind of penalty against them as that would hand the title to Alonso.
or the FIA check every car &m find a ilegal thing in the kubica & Roseber & heidfeld car...then i'd love that!!
No that would just make the title more contraversial, time to move on I guess. My only hope is that Alonso is now kicked out of team McLaren and ends up with Renault next season and has back markers running up his arse!
in a season signed by illegacy and favouritsms we gave a lesson of sport. The best team won. I can't explain my satisfaction, it's a feeling that i think i've never felt in these years of Formula 1!!
FORZA FERRARI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are forgetting McLaren are this year's constructors' championship winners, however, I'm happy for Raikkonen. He was maybe not the best driver this season and not at his best all the time, but he picked up the pace when he needed to and should have at least one title before this.
as I have said before, Ferrari did not win the WCC they were given it by the FIA
