I think we need to revisit the Abu Dhabi thread titles for the past 10 years, they have always been the most creative of the season.

It's hilariously obvious that Crofty and Brundle are bored out of their brains...

I don't think I have watched more than 3 laps of this. WHY do they keep coming to this shit circuit year after year?

Hamilton crossing the line got close to the wall to salute his team. I shoot it there. He will announce retirement on podium

You really think so? I have been having the same thoughts as well you know. But I also think he might want to beat Schumacher before retiring.

Love seeing Max's ex-teammate denying him the grand slam, haha.

No I was actually joking. The thing is too easy too safe and no stress for lewis to lose the occasion of a 8th title. On the other hand I think he will stop after the 8th title, going on forever won’t add anything to his career or even be a backlash on his reputation

Look, I understand there is a GP in the UAE, and I understand it is at Abu Dhabi.

Equally I understand that some of the infrastructure cannot be changed, but certainly within the confines of what exists, they must be able to reshape some corners?
