What takes longer - last minute of a football game, or the start of an F1 race?

That was ridiculous! I can't believe it's all down to the last race! You couldn't script a better season if you tried.

Tied on points, but Verstappen has more wins, so if Verstappen has an "accident" aka a "Schumacher" and takes both Hamilton and himself out of the last race, he wins the title!

It sure will be interesting going into the first corner in Abu Dhabi.

Kimi was voted driver of the day, even though he had to retire from the race. Shows how much the fans like him.

Good race. Great finish. Apparently red bull and Honda splitting for next year…hello 8 for Hamilton?

But will Mercedes' protest change the outcome?

Both protests by Mercedes have been rejected. Max confirmed as champion. I look forward to reading the FIA's explanation. Some already calling for Michael Masi to be fired. I ask the question..."What would Charlie Whiting do?"

This is going to the courts, which is the exact thing they wanted to avoid.. a title decided by the stewards or lawyers. I think Max deserves the WDC, but apart from the lap 1 turn 6 incident it looked like Lewis was doing better this race.
