Kimi was the best driver he passed today, your right

but it was a bit obvious for MS to know what line kimi's going to use if thats the case.

Your losing me here mate, Kimi moved left, then left AGAIN to block Michael so Michael went further left, RIGHT against the wall to overtake him, kimi did not yeild the corner till 2/3rd's of the way through it!

Kimi could have kept it tight and stayed on the left and MS was a bit behind so he could have kept tight without touching the ferrari.
coz MS would never have past around the outside if he did.

I don't expect Kimi expected Michael to have such pace!
If you listened to the commentry you will have heard that MS had 4/5mph MORE top speed than the other guys! You try defending that round Interlagos!

kimi blocked michael the first time he tried to go round
then the yellow flags were out
then michael tried it again
kimi blocked him again
3rd time round kimi tried the same block again but michael knew it was coming and ghosted past on the left where kimi had left the door open
it obviously looke dlike kimi had been caught with his pants down, but he couldn't go across as that would have been considered as weaving, which isn't allowed
and he would have put both himself and michael possiblyout of the race, not something he wanted to be remembered for

I think you'll find he defended that corner to the point he pushed himself wide, he tried the same move the previous lap but kimi took the defensive line early to avoid being taken, then did the same next time thinking michael wouldnt risk trying a move so close to the wall so late into the corner, how wrong was he!! just proved why he is the greatest of all time (imo) he may not of won today but it was one of his most memorable drives, what a way to be remembered in your last race, getting a puncture and dropping to last spot and 70+ seconds behind, then to come back like that, I dont think any driver in history could of come back like that, he'll be sorely missed by me, LEGEND
