Lewis Hamilton - once again he choked because he has proved he's a small fish in a big pond. Only two wins from six poles says it all, really. I wonder what excuse the Lewis fan club will have. Wake up, McLaren have got a little boy doing a man's job. Ryan, St Helens
If the title went to the one who truly deserved it, Kubica has made fewer reckless errors and been more consistent. Kat, York
It looks as if pressure is getting to Hamilton and Massa. Good drives by the boys on the podium. All makes for an interesting championship, though. Chris, Kettering
Great to see Kimi on the podium once again. Shame he got hampered at the start after a great launch off the grid. Nick, Hull
Seems like Lewis made a slow start and then, rather than keeping relaxed and calm, he got into a panic, causing the incidents with Kimi and Massa.
It's a shame because a top-three place would have been fine but now it's pressure time for Hamilton again. Can he cope? Mark, Watford
Lewis made a mistake on the first corner and deserved a penalty but he is still six points ahead. Abid, Wakefield
Why did McLaren allow an excitable, immature six-year-old boy to drive Hamilton's car at Fuji? Starting first and finishing 12th is not the performance of a champion.
Is the lad getting the British sportsman's disease of believing the British press before actually winning anything? Is he going to be another Moss - the man who didn't win the world championship? Rob, Bletchley
As talented as Lewis is, he needs to learn that you don't have to win every race to be the world champion. Schumi won one of his titles by finishing eighth in the final race of the season and collecting one point. It's not just about speed - it's also about using your head. AK, Kent
So, Hamilton pushes Massa wide, Massa comes back on to the race track and hits Hamilton and they both get a drive through. How does that work? Fred, DE75
Re: Graham. Having no interest in rugby league, I never heard the booing of the English anthem on Friday. But if your anthem was booed, I would certainly condemn it. Chris, Wales
Re: Carl, Worksop. You got that wrong. Rugby union is the REAL, original rugby. Rugby league was developed for those not bright enough to understand the rules. Tom, Durham
Re: Nick, Monton. You've hit the nail on the head. The Williams sisters have always chosen their tournaments carefully. The tennis calendar is far too long and players are always picking up injuries or playing when not 100% fit. The Williams sisters have been playing at the top level for years and are still going strong. Jay, Kingston
Just the response I expected from Serena Williams supporters. Guess what, there is no such thing as "the real world No 1", only the actual world No 1 who, rightfully, is Jelena Jankovic.
You are as deluded as Serena is, never admitting it's her fault when she loses. Tiger Woods was once given the chance to meet the Williams sisters but his dad turned it down as he would never want to be associated with anyone who behaves like that. Darren, Pulb'gh
Re: Claire. You are making a mistake. Laura Robson is not British so you are not surposed to criticise.
Also, why is it when people see talented young British people, they expect them to be the finished product? When they are foreign, they are hot prospects for the future. Go figure. Shaun, March.
Re: Rob. As long as Venus or Serena turn up at SW19 in good shape, Jankovic has NO chance of winning Wimbledon! Mark, Worc
Steffi Graf is the best female tennis player. She played Venus Williams and Martini Hingis off the court in Majors prior to retiring. Kevin, Glasgow
Re: Tom, Durham. Your ugly comments tell us much more about you than either rugby league or union. Truth is, league changed its rules to develop a code which was a spectacle so it could pay its way in a (so-called) professional environment. Union is now doing exactly the same. Considering the number of rules (sorry, laws) union has stolen from league, it won't be long before the former goes the whole hog by stripping out lineouts and losing the four extra players.
