Kimi Räikkönen is definitely staying the champ, no doubt about it!

There really isn't even a remote chance that Kimi Räikkönen could have taken the title, because his win was completely earned—and honestly, if you were still using the old scoring system, he would have won by an even larger margin.
Kimi Räikkönen 93
Lewis Hamilton 87
Fernando Alonso 85

If they had somehow managed to pull off a different result, I suspect Formula 1 would have basically fallen apart as a competitive sport. To be fair, I was pulling for Lewis Hamilton, but I just didn't want to see Fernando Alonso take the championship either. In the end, Kimi Räikkönen rightfully became the world champion🙏, and I don't think there’s much room for debate there. Besides, I actually find myself respecting Fernando Alonso a lot more now after his recent comments👍; maybe he said it because of the whole Lewis Hamilton situation, but regardless, the man is absolutely right. Kimi Räikkönen deserved it, plain and simple, and even Lewis Hamilton seems to agree with that sentiment. It just feels like Ron Dennis can't quite stomach the reality that he essentially became the biggest loser in history, not just in Formula 1, but in all of sports, simply due to his own poor judgment. My take on the whole thing is that while a team has to pick a number one driver—and I personally thought that should have been Lewis Hamilton, though I wouldn't have minded if it were Fernando Alonso—there still needs to be some sense of order. When you lose that structure, everything descends into chaos, and instead of having a top-tier team like Ferrari, you end up with the Los Angeles Lakers.😁

If they tried to change it, Formula 1 would basically fall apart as a real competition. I was pulling for Lewis Hamilton, sure, but I definitely didn't want Fernando Alonso taking the trophy. At the end of the day, Kimi deserved to be World Champion, 🙏period. End of story. Honestly, Fernando Alonso actually gained a lot of respect in my eyes after his recent comments. 👍Maybe he said it because of the whole Lewis Hamilton drama, but the guy is right—Kimi earned it. Even Lewis Hamilton agrees. The only one who can't handle the truth is Ron Dennis. He just can't accept that he became the biggest loser in the history of Formula 1—and sports in general—simply by being an idiot. In my book, it doesn't matter who you pick as the number one driver. If I had to choose, I'd say it's Lewis Hamilton, but if it were Fernando Alonso, fine too. But there has to be order. Without leadership, everything turns into chaos, and instead of a powerhouse like Ferrari, you end up with the Los Angeles Lakers.😁

I'm with you on this.

And honestly, if they had managed to pull that off, I think Formula 1 would have essentially collapsed as a legitimate competition. Personally, I was pulling for Lewis Hamilton, but my main goal was simply ensuring Fernando Alonso didn't take the trophy. In the end, Kimi deserved to be World Champion, plain and simple.🙏 There’s really no debate there, and I actually find myself respecting Fernando Alonso a lot more now after his recent comments.👍 Maybe he said it because of the whole Lewis Hamilton drama, but regardless, the man is spot on—Kimi earned that title, period. Even Lewis Hamilton seems to agree with the sentiment. It's just that Ron Dennis can't seem to stomach the reality that he became the biggest loser in history—not just in Formula 1, but in all of sports—solely due to his own sheer stupidity. My personal philosophy is pretty straightforward: if a team has to designate a number one driver, fine, whoever they pick. I thought it should be Lewis Hamilton, but if it had been Fernando Alonso, I would've been fine with that too. But there has to be a sense of order; without structure, you get chaos, and instead of a powerhouse like Ferrari, you end up with the Los Angeles Lakers.😁


I'm with you on this—there is no way they could have taken that title from Kimi!!
