sayjann Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 i've never been a fan of motor racing but the last 2 Years have been interesting. Hamilton was/is a breath of fresh air to the sport after the boring Years of Schumacher. Mentors called Hamilton lucky but he has been consistent over 2 Seasons of racing and after the disappointment(and imaturity/loss of bottle?)of last Season he took the title after a few thrills today. i saw the 1st 4 laps and then had to go to work and watched bits and pieces of the race as i walked past the tv. saw the last 4 laps and the room was packed with staff,patients and visitors. we cheered as he kept 5th place and then groaned as he slipped to 6th.......... all the talk was of 2 Years in a row he lost it in the final race and then the incredible happened. the last corner and he retakes 5th spot and gets the points he needed.......... :thumbup: the last race,the last corner made it dramatic. congrats to him for winning and becoming the youngest champion in history. over the last 2 Years he has won the most points and that has to be applauded. the hard part is next Year when he has to defend his title.
