2 points more than Rosberg and 9 more than Vettel in Austin and both championship are done and dusted.

So Merc 1-2 and Vettel 3rd will do it, providing Lewis wins.

And Lewis will love winning the title in the US.

What a braindead move by Kimi. He ruined a well earned 3rd for Bottas... I think a penalty of sorts is on the cards.

Bottas was a bit more contained lol.

BTW Alonso keeps topping himself, "I love your sense of humor" is gold!!!!!

Pitting under the SC was the correct choice but the leaders didn't do it.

Crazy Kimi was more than a bit crazy today.
Maybe not for Hamilton, but the ones behind him definetely could have gambled on that a bit.

On the same strategy Perez wouldn't be in the same fight as Bottas and Raikkonen on the last lap, so it seems like the correct choice.

This is why Kimi is the number 2 driver.
If it were Maldonado there would be no delay in the judgement!

- Emperor's new clothes chapter ...., that should be a penalty and not some 5 s but full drive-through type
- Bottas deserved the second place today (better than Ferrari drivers) but good for Perez.

Didn't Ricciardo try a similar move on Kimi in Monaco? https://twitter.com/f1/status/653194615412158468
The cheapest sort of pride is national pride, every miserable fool who has nothing at all of which he can be proud adopts, as a last resource, pride in the nation to which he belongs; thus reimbursing himself for his own inferiority.

Any confirmation of a verdict on kimi? I heard that there may be a 20 sec penalty (putting him in 8th?).
