Not that we at anotherf1podcast are conspiracy theorists. But this seasons climax went right to the final corner wire, just like them pesky advertisers would like.

I’m not saying that Bernie somehow manipulated it - but I just found an eerily precient wish in the Foreword of last years “Official Season Review”

“The nice thing is that best race we’ve had for a long time was the last race [of the 2007 season], because that’s what people remember. A finish like that is always my dream - I’ve always said we wanted the result on the last corner of the last lap…”

It’s over - it’s gone to the wire again, and a couple of days on the champagne/lager/guinness/glock hangovers have faded and our boy who is not always our boy but sometimes is our boy is finally world champion.

We boo far too many people to be good sportsfans and we get hysterical as one of the better seasons of formula one goes down to the very last corner
