Lewis Hamilton’s car slowed down at lap 7 in Brazillian F1. The rest of the cars overtook him. He was simply unlucky. Don’t know what happened to his car. But, he was able to continue racing but having to start from position 18 to move all the way up was a big task ahead. Filipe Massa was leading Kimi Raikkonen and Alonso.
As expected, Ferrari team order was executed and Massa gave was to Kimi Raikkonen. Kimi led all the way to the end of the race followed Filipe Massa (Ferrari), Fernando Alonso (McLaren), Nico Rosberg (Williams-Toyota), Robert Kubica (BMW Sauber), Nick Heidfeld (BMW Sauber) and Lewis Hamilton (McLaren). Lewis Hamilton drove all the way to 7th position which did not give him enough point to end the session as the Champion.
With this results, Kimi Raikkonen top the table by one point over Alonso and Hamilton. But, he has to wait for awhile before he can pop the champagne. McLaren is appealing against race stewards’ decision not to penalize Williams and BMW Sauber for fuel temperature irregularities at Interlagos race.
Let’s wait for the final decision. But, since it’s an appeal which will have repercussion on Ferrari. So, let’s wait for the outcome.

…what a shame. he lost the world championship by 1 point. but on the brighter side, not bad for a rookie, and for F1, what a draw! 1st to 3rd place in world championship separated by just one point - very exciting.
btw, like your webpage banner with u and your missus - that is, i presume that’s your missus!

IMO, McLaren is the biggest loser as they cannot manage their 2 great drivers in their stable. Imagine, if it were Ferrari, sure finish as 1-2 for the individual title.
