F1 World Championship 2008 Thread



Recommended Posts

Anyone care to elaborate what happened? I have don't have a feed of the race! :(

3 laps to go: Hamilton 5th Vettel 6th

Vettle overtake Hamilton so he loses the championship.

Glock is 4th with dry tires with a wet track.

With two corners to go, Glock tires can't handle the rain and Vettle and Hamilton overtake him. And Hamilton wins by 1 point the championship

Hamilton is not the best driver in the world, the race was gifted to him by Glock, Massa deserves to have won that. I really hate how ITV dress Hamilton up as an 'amazing' driver, when the amount of mistakes he is made is the only thing that is amazing. Anyone remember the McLaren cheating stuff?

what?! you dont follow something and then say something you have no idea about is suspect?

it wasnt that i have no knowledge of the sport, i just havent pledged allegiances to any drivers in the recent years. it was in reply to you calling me a sore loser. that was the point i was making... maybe read what i wrote next time.

plus, i wasn't the only one. none of the commentators offered any instant explanation, and it was so out of the blue.

maybe the fact that it was so out of the blue is whats throwing me. i accept now that it is most likely legit.

Woo, what an exciting race, glad Hamilton is winner (Y)

McLaren knew Glock was slowing down as the cars have GPS as well so can track on that as well. He also had dry tyres meaning he had no grip which meant Hamilton could overtake. This isn't a setup!

Anyway, great race :)

the only reason glock was ahead was because he was on dry tyres and didnt pit, the same reason he sucked on the last lap (as did trulli) so it wasnt really gifted to him. i think massa made more mistakes at silverstone than lewis has done in most of the season!

i can't resist:

What about when Hamilton crashed in the pits at Montreal, he's just plain dangerous.

Great race, and a spectacular finish to a great F1 reason! Hamilton deserved the championship, and it was great to see him keep his composure in the race. It was his patience at the end that paid off.

I'm interested to see what Hamilton has to say on the race and the season. Will there be a press conference or something like that?

    • Personally, I think these things are way over rated and way over priced, even at this price. I recently had Frontier Fiber installed with 2 of these devices and although they worked, I switched back to my own router and AP setup and get way better consistency on wireless speed than with Eeros. Wired speed seems to be more consistent also. Will be returning Eeros soon. I had told Frontier I didn't want them to begin with.
    • Yes, exactly what I have been thinking. Don't make the context menu simpler, make it smarter to learn what I actually use. And then, give me the ability to pin settings that I rarely use but need forget where they are.

    • Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June game showcase schedule is packed, and with the Sony event already behind us, it's time for the next major presentation to come in swinging. Later today, Geoff Keighley will be bringing the 2026 edition of Summer Game Fest live from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the Summer Game Fest showcase livestream will be kicking off at 2 PM PT | 5 PM ET | 10 PM BST later today, June 5. The jam-packed show is slated to run for about two hours, with platforms like YouTube (4K at 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, or X being available for catching it. Like in previous years, separate streams featuring American Sign Language and Descriptive Audio are available on YouTube as well. Keighley has only dropped a few teasers about what gaming fans can expect to see at the show. This includes a new look at Star Wars Zero Company from EA, a major announcement from Guild Wars developer ArenaNet, more Clutch gameplay, and some sort of Sega presence. As for fan expectations, there is hype building about a Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 reveal here, and we might see new details about announced games like Alien Isolation 2 as well. If you want even more games, keep in mind that right after the main kickoff event, the Day of the Devs showcase will begin its own festivities at 4 pm PT | 7 pm ET. This is focused entirely on upcoming indie games. Following this, the next major games showcase is slated to happen on June 7. Here, Microsoft is bringing the big guns with its Xbox Games Showcase and Gears of War E-Day Direct. Check out the full calendar for all of the June events over here.
