    They were the days - much like the Brazilian race was "the days", just you weren't watching.

    Senna at Monaco in the Toleman (which I suspect Fats is referring to) was far more impressive than Brundle's race there.

    Edit - sorry, I see you've covered all that!!!

    Hamilton 1st, Rosberg second I reckon and a pretty dull race.

    I kinda want to see Rosberg spin out early doors and have to fight back. Would be exciting.

    And there was me hoping Massa's last contribution is taking Lewis out ... :)

    Great move by Rosberg around Verstappen, but a hell of a job by Verstappen keeping that thing pointed in the right direction on absolutely ruined tyres.

    Lewis being clever, slowing down to back Rosberg and the others up.

    This is a lot more tense than I thought it was going to be!

    Rosberg should let Vettel past. Then Hamilton will have to speed up and Rosberg can pull away from Verstappen. Third is enough for the title.

    That was utterly absurd. I approve.

    Well done Rosberg. Although he mainly won because of the mechanical issues Lewis had earlier in the season. Lewis is the better driver.

    Hamilton wins but loses all respect from Mercedes. So pleased for Rosberg!

    He did nothing wrong. Any other driver would have done exactly the same.

    Hamilton and Rosberg have both had 4 mechanical failures each in the last 3 years.........so it all evens out.......well done Rosburg.

    Don't get me wrong, I agree with what you say. Toto Wolff would have crucified him if Vettel or Verstappen had taken Rosberg out though.
