Possible I guess but he's wanted to leave Ferrari for not being competitive and imagine the wage bill of Alonso, Kimi and Vettel

[Daniel 7]

Alonso staying?!

[RichC]

Sounds like Redbull and Ferrari are talking up 3 car teams, not overly keen on it myself tbh but they need to do something about the distribution of money in F1

I can see Rosberg trying the old Schumacher tricks tomorrow when Lewis try's to pass him.

Why are the 10 that aren't McLaren bothering.

Silly billys

11 teams announced so far for next season as well although you wonder about the Caterham and Manor teams (was Marussia) will need to sort themselves out financially to do so.

Sauber announce Erikssons team mate for next year as Felipe Nasr looks like Gutierez and Sutil will be without drives for next year then.

Strange how there's still been no announcement on who'll be driving for Ferrari next year or McLaren for that matter.

[RichC]

It's crazy he could win 11 races and end up with a retirement in the last race and still lose the title.

The double points awarded this season could well damage F1 if it's a deciding factor which is the only reason Berni had it put in place

[meffin]

Hamilton is in a different league to Rosberg and if he doesn't win the championship (after winning a minimum of 10 races) it will be a travesty.

Double point race is ridiculous. I have a bad feeling Rosberg will win it on the last race due to a technical fault on Hamilton.

Looking good for Lewis but still plenty of time for the final race to **** everything up if he hits any mechanical trouble.

[Leyton388]

By far the best race of the season. What a fantastically fast circuit that is in Texas. Fast sweeping bends and loads of overtaking opportunities. Lewis is on the march to another title.

[Vermilion]

Yeah, it's a bit **** though.

Suzi looking hot tonight.

[RichC]

Money

[Vermilion]

What a waste of time and effort!

2 races left, yet if Hamilton makes it 6 wins on the bounce by winning the next race, and Rosberg fails to even finish, the title would still be wide open going into the last race.

Why do they **** about with sports where the best is meant to be decided over a season or league!

It's bollocks, what if Hamilton was taken out through no fault of his own, or got an untimely puncture, it would be a sporting travesty, all the superb work and driving of late would be undone in one single race.

[Chazza]

I don't follow f1, couldn't be any less interested.

But I feel like Lewis Hamilton is a bit of a nob, is he really or is it just what I've seen of him.

I think he is an arrogant prick.

Most drivers are but he really gets on my wick.
