The best F1 race ever ?

I hope all the Formula 1 fans watched the race today. My heart stopped during the last 2 laps. Could this be the best and the closest race in the history of racing ? I’m go glad Lewis Hamilton won and more importantly McLaren won after all these years.

I have seen this only in India with cricket matches, but today I saw crackers go up all over Bristol.

    Hmmmm, but do you think Glock slowed down on purpose?

    The article proves otherwise, but I still have doubts 🙁

    Of course I watched the race :p (Was up till 0345 watching haha)

    Brilliant race and no, I’m not happy for Lewis, I don’t like him…but these kind of races are so good for F1 and for the fans.

    I can’t remember when I was so excited that I could hear my heart beating so fast…

    2007 and 2008, both championships down to 1 point and decided at the last race. Amazing!

    There was so much confusion and chaos in the last lap, I would doubt he even knew what was happening to help Hamilton.

    With what happened with McLaren last year, I was just very very happy to see them win, though for the 1st time in my life, I felt bad for Massa.

    Oh wow! McLaren fans are a bit hard to come by these days, esp. after some people defected to Ferrari last year.

    I’m so glad I got an opportunity to wear my Vodafone McLaren Mercedes T-shirt today. Even more glad that I’d be wearing it to a business meeting with a third party 😀

    I threw it in my DVR and watched it pseudo-live. My heart was pounding like crazy the last two laps. What a race!

    ahhh… you are in the eye of the celebrations arent you? 🙂

    I was a diehard lewis supporter last year for the way he drove and I still admire his skills. But this year, I felt massa really deserved the championship and I was very heartbroken when the glockyness happened.

    last 2 laps was total killer.. you should have seen all the tweets pouring in then…. especially the ones during the last 10 seconds. 🙂

    Agree, the best F1 race I have seen. I was getting bored till the rain started again, but the last 2 laps made up for all the boredom.
