F1 Finale... *WITH SPOILERS!

Deserved WDC for LH. He's matured a lot this year and has won me over.





It's Evolution Baby!

Very dignified response from Rosberg too. Nice to see.

Another good performance by JB too. Double the points of his team mate yet no confirmed seat for next year, would be a huge shame if that was the last we see of him in F1.

Let's hope there's more than 2 cars in it next year.

Unless the likes of RBR and Ferrari can somehow negate the Mercedes stranglehold on development, then sorry, I think it will be another 2 car Championship next year. The remainder are allowed to develop things in 2016, so if you can stay awake next year, it might get a bit better the year after.
Might be 2017 then until we see some 'competition' in F1.

A great season by Lewis - I've always been a big fan since he arrived on the scene and I appreciate how he wears his heart on his sleeve (though have cringed a few times along the way). I'd have been most annoyed if Rosberg had clinched the title based on far less victories and an imbalance of technical 'luck'. i did feel for him though and think he handled the situation very well - hats off to him for completing the last few laps after being told to bring it in.

Unless Honda really deliver next year, it'll be another 2 horse race so hopefully we'll see Hamilton see Rosberg off again.

No mentions of Williams doing so well?! (unless my eyes are failing). Both drivers have had some great performances. If there's one thing you can be sure of in F1, it's that no team advantage lasts forever.

I too was expecting Rosberg to box it before he got lapped. Fair play to him.

Even with Hamilton leading pretty much the whole time and only needing second to win the title it still felt like it could still go either way until very late in the race which made for a great end to the season, probably the closest it's felt in the final race since his last win (I'm aware that's not the last season where it went down to the wire but the ones with Vettel felt like a foregone conclusion). Nice to see Nico stay out and finish the race, I was surprised they offered to have him box, it's not like they need to preserve the car or anything.

Nice to see Caterham made enough money to make it, just a shame Marrussia couldn't and I believe forfeit their best ever seasons final result.

Fair result in the end that reflected the overall seasons performance, in the end both merc drivers had three non finished (effectively) so the final points difference, not taking into account the double race, illustrated the big gap in wins per driver, how it should be.
