I cannot believe it.

I'm not putting this under a cut, because, well, I think all of you who watch F1 will have known about this anyway, and those of you who don't, won't care anyway and will likely skim over my entry (Sorry, but this will likely be my last F1 rambling this year!).

First of all, CONGRATULATIONS TO KIMI RAIKKONEN FOR WINNING THE ( Read more... )

I couldn't completely cheered for Kimi until I saw those BMWs and Williams crossed the lines. And even then, I KNEW that something like the FIA inquiry into the BMWs and Williams would happen! This year has just been like that, all favor towards Lewis.

But apparently, guess what :)! The FIA claimed insufficient evidence and Kimi's title stays! However, McLaren will still appeal the decision, but I don't think the FIA can afford to grant them a Hamilton victory lest they want to lose bajillions of Kimi and Alonso fans and, like I said, other F1 fans who are simply not infatuated with Lewis.

Cross your fingers!

I just think Massa wanted Kimi to have the title, more than he wanted to win his home grand prix. (and I can't see Alonso doing that for Hamilton, or reversed)Well, in my opinion, Massa HAS to hand Kimi that win whether he wants to or not. If Kimi finished second, Ham would've won it. So, there's no way was Massa going to NOT give it to Kimi, unless he wanted to be fired by Ferrari, haha ( ... )

Btw, here's what Alonso said of McLaren's stupid appeal of the FIA decision to keep Kimi's title:

Fernando Alonso is reported this morning as commenting that it would be shameful if Hamilton is named winner because of this. He told the Cadena Ser radio station that his face ‘would fall in shame for the sport’ if it happened.
The ex World Champion commented that Raikkonen was a ‘just champion’.

‘If you have more points you are the Champion, as in football’, he said. He has won six races and Hamilton and I four’.

I still think he's a good guy, haha...

I was so excited for Kimi!! It was looking that Alonso wasn't going to have a chance with how strong the Ferraris were, so I was so happy to see Kimi win. I laughed so hard when Hamilton had his issue - stupid brat. He truly is the "Golden Child" - the American announcers wanted him to win so badly, even after he had his issue. It was disgusting.

Then I heard about the fuel issue and couldn't believe that they might give the championship to Hamilton. I was relieved to hear that after investigating they decided not to penalize anyone. But no, McLaren decides to appeal. Nothing better come of it because that would be ridiculous to decide the championship by that.

Alonso needs to get the heck out of McLaren - that place is toxic.

I love all the bright, pretty pictures.

Once again - Woot! Congrats to Kimi! :)

You know, *conspiracy theory hat on* I'm really suspicious about Alonso's car in McLaren. Look at his statements regarding his team in this article:
"In the last races both my hands and feet have been tied. I didn't have any power. I had to do it all the way they said and that made it harder to close the gap."http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/63581... )

I disliked Kimi for the Ferrari thing too. I so wanted an Alonso/Kimi partnership and he just went off. Now though he's definitely shown his worth and is a deserved champion. I don't even dislike Ferrari as much - definitely not as much as I hate McLaren ( ... )

You're right that I too don't dislike Ferrari as much as I hate McLaren! Hah, who ever foresaw that happening? Even my dad, who's been a McLaren fan thanks to Mika, is disgusted by their behavior this season.

I can't believe you could still laugh the Heid-Kubica-Ros battle, hahaha... My heart was in my throat the entire time, heh.

Hamilton is spoiled. He's gotten away with SO much this year it's unbelievable. I doubt he's a good person underneath. Not anymore, anyway. I feel sorry for whoever his teammate will me next year. That's a one way ticket to being Public Enemy #1 in Britain!Not if you're willing to be Golden Boy's slave, you won't be public enemy #1, heh. But, yeah, looking back on what he's been allowed to get away with, I just feel really disgusted. I don't think even Michael was allowed to get away with so much! Not in his first year ( ... )

I to was glad that South Africa beat England for the World Cup. :D I'm sorry, I'm just commenting on this now. I've been pretty busy with school and everything! I've missed you! Have you gotten the chance to watch SPN?
