Well done to LH this past weekend. Kept cool under the strain and deserved the win.
Still one more race where he can blow it though... wonder what the current odds are?
...
I wonder what the current odds are on Kimi somehow taking Hamilton off the track in Brazil and the FIA doing nothing about it?

(Just like the old Senna/Prost/Mansell days.)
I have been thinking exactly the same thing... and something I can only expect from Ferrari.. It's not a case of will they.. more like when.

I think that if Ferrari can hold on to the manufacturers championship - which they most likely will - then the FIA might let MacLaren have the drivers championship.
As far as James Allen is concerned, I do think he gets it a little hard. Some of the stuff i've read about him is way over the top. Have a go at his commentary (as i'm about to do) if you want but a bunch of wankers hiding behind computers calling him all manner of things is not on (not a reference to anyone here btw!). Like Paula said, he's a nice guy, and a major enthusiast, and he gets criticised more than he deserves.
I thought he was really growing into the role until Hamilton came along. Now I find his bias irritating. OK, he's commentating firstly for the British audience so I expect a bit favouritism towards the Brits but it's really OTT with Hamilton. Steve Rider and Mark Blundell are much the same. Wouldn't mind if James got the BBC gig, I just wouldn't mind if he didn't either.
As for the last race, i'd be astonished if Kimi took out Hamilton. What Hamilton needs to do is avoid putting himself in a 50/50 position where one of the Ferrari's could possibly get away with turning him round. In short, don't do what he did in Japan.
Based on what Alonso has being saying lately, I would think the odds are better of HIM driving LH off the road. There is a lot more bad blood between them than from Ferrari's point of view. Alonso is on record stating how he would like to assist Massa in winning the title and would do "anything" to help.
Besides, Kimi is not the type of driver to do that purposefully. He is not like Shumi, Senna, Prost (and dare I say it, Hamilton - although He is not quite there yet in terms of having the same "presence" as those mentioned) as he (Kimi) does not have the balls or the "red mist" mentality of win at all costs.
I also agree 100% with Hot Cheese's opinion of the commentary.
And Paula, of course you would dissagree. To quote DC - "That sums up the (wo)man"

Wow now that was a finnish I wont forget in a hurry. Thought Hamilton had throw it all away with 2 to go and quite frankly I thought what a lemon for letting that position go.
How long before a stewards enquiry is announced though

Even with Toro Rosso, Alonso and Renault AND the FIA all fighting for them, Ferrari STILL couldn't win it.

Well done to Lewis. He did enough to win it. Showed he has learnt something called patience - I thought he was going to bin it on the last 2 laps. He waited and got the rewards.
Two corners from the end, my joy became sorrow. I know how his family (not Ferrari) were feeling when they were celebrating too soon. I was as well.
Just a word about Massa. Drove a perfect race.
Vettel - showed again that he is a star in the making. That boy needs to go to Ferrari for us to stand a chance again.
Ken, how much did McLaren pay Glock to slow down so much? Cheats!
Only J/k - all credit to LH
