Do you feel the same way?
How many more years has Hamilton got left in him? Is it now mostly a question of beating Schumacher?

Massa won the race in Brazil and Ferrari started celebrating thinking he also won the WDC but Hamilton passes Timo Glock at the final turn, giving him enough points to win his first WDC instead

It's discussed quite a bit when Massa was on the F1 Podcast.

McLaren obviously paid off glock somehow to let him past. Remember the year before hamilton hosed up by accidentaly putting his pit limiter on, wouldn't want him loving up the championship two times in a row

I've made a huge mistake.
If McLaren had done better at supporting an inexperience rookie in 2007, he hadn't experience a freak wheel failure on the penultimate lap of the Spanish GP in 2010, and Rosberg hadn't had the luck of the car in 2016, Our Blessed Lewis would already be a nine time WDC.

Basically he's the unluckiest driver in the history of the sport.

I don't think its controversial to say that Maldonado is the unluckiest driver in the history of the sport. Every time he was at his best, some twat was in his way.

Jim Clark, although technically British and one might assume therefore fraudulent, was actually Scottish as opposed to English, and therefore not fraudulent. As such, it is a crime for Ferrari fans (fraudulent fans) to misspell his last name.

It's funnier when you consider that Kimi is only WDC because of the other team's implosion. The last time Ferrari was actually WDC through proper outright speed was 2004 lol just F2lol4
