It came down to the last corner of the last lap. And fittingly, he won the championship by one point where he lost it last year by one point.
Cynics won’t help being able to believe it was orchestrated. Timo Glock, who’d chosen to stay out on dries when everybody else dove in for wets, clawed up to forth putting Hamilton in sixth behind Vettel. Lewis, not able to put any moves on Vettel in the closing laps appeared to lose the championship to Massa. Massa and Ferrari were celebrating on Massa’s victory lap. And then, out of nowhere, on the very last corner of the last lap Glock wobbled on the increasingly wet track letting Vettel and Hamilton by, giving Lewis the fifth place finish he needed to go one point up on Massa.
Sadly, it was the most exciting event of the entire race.
Another season over. I won’t see another race until the baby is born.
