Verstappen is F1 World Champion.

[titusisback]

Hamilton is still the best driver.

Nah, not this season

10 wins for Verstappen vs 8 for Hamilton
10 poles for Verstappen vs 5 for Hamilton
Verstappen was in the lead more than 2x the laps Hamilton was.
Mercedes was 10 mp/h faster on main straights and they still managed to lose the title.

Re: last race, Verstappen took a risk by changing tyres multiple times, Hamilton was conservative by changing just one. The gamble paid off, Verstappen did nothing wrong. It was Mercedes' own fault for running 40+ laps with the same tyres, Hamilton was asking to box. That was foolish and unnecessary.

The Best Driver Won. 

Not the one with the best or fastest car.

Both of them in the exact same car Max would leave Soy Boy far far behind.
FFS when Lulu was off with the virus & the rookie driver drove his car set up for Lulu he was easily winning
the race, (He'd never driven that car before) - until Mercedes Put The Wrong Tyres on Deliberately, Just so he wouldn't Burst Lulu's Best Driver Bubble !!! FFS

Interesting. Concise explanation there. I don't follow the sport at all but I am a car guy. Anyways, wouldn't all the teams have to agree to the change or at least a majority. Smells like corruption.

They all agreed to the engine rule changes.

I think the other teams just underestimated Mercedes and the complexity of these turbo hybrid engines.

Before the rule changes F1 cars were using 2.4L V6 fuel-injected engines.

Lewis is the best driver in history, but not this season.

I think Mercedes will always have an advantage.

Without Bottas blocking for him, i think Lewis will struggle.

I think Lewis is an amazing driver, i leave my personal feelings about him out of the equation, but he lost fair and square this season.

If anything he is lucky the race for #1 wasn't settled a few races ago.

Mercedes will be stronger next year. I'm just curious how strong Red Bull will be.

Seeing how he fares against George Russell in the same team next year will be interesting.

As long as he has the same car specification & not a sub par one - Mercedes deliberately stopped him
winning his maiden GP in Lulu's car so as not to show Soy Boy up.

Indeed!

I think Lewis will have his hands full with Max and Russell.

Assuming Mercedes allows Russell to go full pace.

Should be be a great season at least with more competition.

If Ferrari recovers, then we could have three teams fighting for race wins.

All with excellent drivers.

F1 drivers would do good in bbing, all are sub 5’6
