    At other tracks it would be less important, they could do something with increasing revs and the like. Not much use in this case though.

    Safety car, Massa takes out Hamilton, Roseberg to scrape 5th and win the title. :P

    Redbull get penalised for their dodgy wing, yet lotus are allowed a flame thrower for stopping the car, behind from overtaking. Where's the justice in that?

    Gutted for Rosberg.

    Didn't catch much of the exchange between him and the team, how did he sound with them? No shouting or screaming?

    Ham could be in trouble here. 2 secs slower than Massa.

    Nope, they just turned the engine down.

    Massa just needs to get near him and Hamilton will jump out of the way, would be no need to take the risk for Hamilton.

    Massa winning the race with Hamilton claiming the title, I most certainly could live with that.

    Disappointing end to the season, was hoping for a great tension filled battle to end it but Hamilton has been in full control since the lights went off. Fair play to him, I may not be a fan but he has done brilliantly this season and has the bottle.

    In fairness even if Hamilton retired Rosberg would still need 5th. Doesn't look like that's going to happen. Shame we didn't get the finale we were expecting.

    Rosberg really in trouble. He won't retire until he absolutely has to, but even if Hamilton stopped there's no way Rosberg can make it.

    Will Williams roll the dice and throw some super-softs on Massa? Might as well give it a blast, will have about 13 seconds to make up if he stopped now.

    Ah not really, Rosbergs car is having all sort of troubles and if Hamilton did retire (don't see that happening) Rosberg needs a top 5 which looks very unlikely.

    Massa takes out Hamilton, Rosberg's ERS comes back. :P

    Not a fan of Massa but I'd love to see him grab the win for Williams.
