Rosberg is not the better driver and he knows it but he did enough to capitalise on Hamilitons misfortune and errors and sometimes thats all you can do. Leicester won the PL last season due to the better teams having poor seasons. That doesn't mean what they did was any less impressive.
we need a new forum rule. you cannot post an opinion.
Wider louder faster cars sounds good
Sounds like even less on track overtaking to me, crap.
If you agree that the term "undeserved champion" can be defined, it is true.
You can't argue that Hamilton won more races, out qualified him and had more technical problems.
Underserved is unfair on Rosberg, ultimately he got more points, but everyone is entitled to his opinion about who the better driver is.
Lol, at Paddy Lowe trying to make out that Lewis perhaps couldn't go faster. You just gave him ****** orders and he was never going to obey them. Nor should he have. Absolutely ridiculous that they got involved at all, let alone the number of people they had try to order Hamilton to ruin any chances he had.

Won less races. Won less podiums....
Not really, he's had enough practice in by far the best car on the grid. Every world champion wobbles on the way to their first title but few get as many years in out right the best car on the grid for 3 or 4 years, probably next year too.
He did what he had to and I think he played that right but the car is head a shoulders above the rest. There really is little pressure when all you have to do is come 2nd when it's damn unlikely the rest can split you.
The cars are also so damn easy to drive. More than ever before this sport needs a complete overhaul.
And?
He didn't get the points though did he, Nico did.
Agree 100% with this.
Neither Nico or Hamilton are touchable by any other team, they just beat them easily. Ocon could win a championship in the Mercedes.
You praise Button all the time instead.
Today again a mistake cost him the race.
I can't remember who it was that said Button was better than Kimi, but I'd say they have been equally poor since the WDC wins.
If my math is correct under the old points system they both would've finished on 136pts? Hamilton would've been crowned champion on race wins (10-9).
136 HAM
136 ROS
The new points system rewards consistency too much.
Discuss!
Rosberg might not have settled for 2nds had he needed to push. He might have pushed harder and Lewis might have broken his car more
Rosberg pushed as hard as he needed to.
As much as I would have preferred to see Hamilton win, this is irrelevant nonsense.
Hamilton had more failures so couldnt score as many points, that's the nature of the sport, it has never been 'best driver wins' anyway, it's generally best car wins and you just have to hope you're the quicker / luckier of the two drivers who happen to be in that car.
It was round about the same time he bagged the second wdc. I guess haters are goner hate though so meh?
