FORMULA 1. MP al Braziliei – Hamilton este noul campion mondial

Duminica, la Sao Paolo, s-a disputat Marele Premiu al Braziliei la Formula 1, ultima etapa a Campionatului Mondial. Plecat din pole-position, brazilianul Felipe Massa a mers foarte bine, a dominat net cursa si a reusit sa se impuna fara probleme. Victoria lui Massa nu i-a adus insa titlul mondial, cununa de lauri mergand la britanicul Lewis Hamilton, care a terminat pe locul 5, adica exact atat cat avea nevoie pentru a fi cu un punct in fata lui Massa.

Daca la piloti s-a impus un pilot McLaren, intrecerea constructorilor a revenit celor de la Ferrari. Interesant este ca in ultimele doua tururi, dupa ce Vettel l-a depasit pe Hamilton, grafica arata ca britanicul este pe locul VI. Dupa ce Vettel a trecut linia de sosire, urmat imediat de britanic, cei din boxa de la Ferrari au explodat de bucurie. Acelasi lucru s-a intamplat insa si la boxele McLaren, deoarece grafica a inselat pe toata lumea, Hamilton reusind sa treaca de Timo Glock.
