Shame , as the actual track in Turkey is good, even more so when you compare it to sh!te like Valencia and Bahrain!! But of course, Bernie does not care about good exciting race tracks, just ones that make money

Not that I will get to see half of the races next year anyway because of Sky

I clearly look at Lewis with rose tinted glasses. Felt sorry for him, I appreciate its a race but what was Kobayashi doing!? He had a broken front wing for gods sake, what did he actually expected to achieve. Never mind.

Cracking drive from JB. Feed up of the RBs now.

50/50 I say. Lewis should have known were kamui was and he moved across the track. Kamui was just trying to pressurize Lewis I think, I think he knew he wasn't going to make the overtake, he was just trying to make Lewis miss the braking point.

Same here, nothing against the team or drivers, but in all honestly the season is over now. No one will catch Vettel or RB in the constructors.

Good on Schumi though, from last to finish 5th , was a great drive

His not had the luck at times this year and the press seems to jump on his back everytime something goes wrong. Still for me his the best driver out there but he needs to learn how to bide his time in races. i.e. look at the race where he got taken out by Button. He was to desperate to get up through the field in the first few laps in wet conditions even though it was obvious there was going to be lots of safety cars and calling correct tyre changes in which time could easily be made up.

I dont think it was the fact that he wasnt all there, i think it was just massive disapointment to know the point gap is now totally unacheivable  :sad: devistated for Lewis.

Turned out a good race thou, Schumi showed a performance like the ferrari years!
Button definitely driver of the day thou, fantastic drive!

Shame this season hasnt been more competative, will definitely miss the BBC. HATE SKY!
