9/1 based on the races (not including qualifying) so far this season

Same odds for Rosberg on that basis.

Not a good overtaking circuit by all accounts tends to be processional. Safety car might be key and, as ever, the start. Quite a short run down to turn 1 then a succession of bends. Rosberg controlling from the front might take some time to develop and for sure it will not be a good place for Hamilton to get launch control gremlins again!

Looking at the circuit it is like an automatic pistol as compared to the bellend of Snetterton (thanks to MB)

Really feel for Rosberg and wanted him to win but big respect for Hamilton.

Well that was the edge of your seat race we wanted. Well deserved for lewis but it was a great shame it wasn't wheel to wheel till the last lap.
I did feel for Nico, I think he was crying as he crossed the line. Bless.

Very emotional end. Happy that F1 is back where it should be.

2015 should see Williams back where they belong and an end to this double points nonsense.

At end of 2013 I was bored stupid with F1. Glad its changed for the better.

Anyone want to take a punt on Massa for the title next year ???
