F1 Championship

This is one of the great races I've seen after the Mika Hakkinen and Michael Schumacher era. And since I'm a Ferrari fan, I'm glad that the Ferrari team got the title in a dramatic end series.

In the history of Fomula 1, this year's championship was considered as one of the greatest battle in racing that ever happened and first time to have three drivers fought for the prestigous crown. Lewis Hamilton, the rookie driver of Mclaren and was the season leader with 107 points. He was followed by Fernando Alonso, the former champion with 103 points. And then Kimi Raikkonen, debut season with Ferrari with 100 points.

My prediction before the race event was Kimi Raikkonen on top, followed by Lewis then by Fernando third. I hate to see Fernando Alonso to win the title because I don't like his work ethics and him being greedy of being on top.

I'm really happy to see that the race end with Kimi Raikkonen (Ferrari) on top followed by Felipe Massa (Ferrari) and then by Fernando Alonso (Mclaren). I give my credits to Massa for not racing too much with Kimi for the team. Lewis finished 7 giving him 2 points and tied with Fernando with 109. Lewis remained in second place at the end of the season since he had more second places than Fernando Alonso.

So in the end, it was a sweet victory for Kimi and for the Ferrari team. They got both the constructor's championship after Mclaren being disqualified for spying on Ferrari and the driver's championship.
