    I would have hoped Dubya would have been there instead of Bill.

    Hamilton will clinch in Mexico.

    The year started with such great promise. Then came Baku....

    So what's the math? If Hamilton has a DNF what does Ferrari have to place in the last 3 races? If he doesn't?

    No matter what Vettel does, Lewis has to finish 5th.

    At least Ferrari tried with the second stop by Vettel. It did not make a difference now but it might have if there would have been a safety car...Better than just following Lewis over the line without any chance of overtaking...

    You should be really happy - You gave up on Seb and Ferrari several races ago, and now your prediction is coming true!

    To the Tifosi on here I say, okay 2017 is now pretty much over - Bring on 2018 and let's try again!

    By then Lewis has 7 WDC and his fans will go nuts....

    What happened to Bottas? He started strong at the beginning of the season and since they resigned him he is nowhere...

    I think RB will be more of a challenge to Merc than Ferrari will next year. I have little confidence in Mr. Sweater while RB will have fresh energy from the Aston Martin deal.

    Quite the opposite. I wish I was wrong. But the writing was on the wall since the summer break. Ferrari went backwards since August while Merc, RB and even McLaren went forward.

    Ferrari has a management problem. For all the money they toss into it they seem find a way to come up losing.

    BS call on Max. Like Hobbs just pointed out, everyone goes off the track at corner 9,10.

    It is Finished.

    I will continue to watch the races, although I will not listen to Eton speak or watch any special "We Love Elton" segments.

    But not to PASS. It's a question of gaining an advantage. The Sky Sports guys agree with the call.

    Kimi was on the racing line. Max short cut the corner to get around him. It's quite clear.

    If Max did not go off the track he could not have passed Kimi. That's unfair.

    I don't know why Fair Weather "fans" even bother to post here.

    I've always struck with Ferrari (the team) through thick and thin, and great and not so great drivers.
