UAE Abu Dhabi 2016 - Yas Marina [Finale in the desert twilight]

Yes, if he doesn't get sacked he definitely won't be their favored driver next year. If Mercedes are very competitive next year it will be Nico's title again. I'll even bet on it this time..

If that happens that would be a great shame as we would not be seeing the best performance that Mercedes can do with Hamilton in their car.

So Hammy is trouble with his team now, his scheme did not work out and now looks quite stupid really.

I dont think he does.

I think more of both of them after this. Rosberg managed to deal with all of that and calmly finish 2nd and win the title. Amazing drive

Hamilton had no choice and tried his best without resorting to dangerous tactics. Shows he wants it still and he has balls.

Both are great drivers. Pleased for Nico. Fully deserved

Hats off to Nico Rosberg, he did what he needed to do to win the title with all Hammy could throw at him. I am sure Vettel had 2nd thoughts about passing Rosberg because that would have exposed him to Vestapenn.

Yes, Seb didn't seem too concerned about making a move on Nico. Interesting..

Well done Nico, sensible calm drive. As mentioned previously was probably counter productive for F1 to see just how far apart the Mercs were to the competition. Playing games with the rest really... Well deserved title for Nico, perhaps Vettel didn't want Lewis to highlight how easy it is to be a 4 time champ in the best car

Awesome end to the season, well done Lewis for keeping the dominance all season despite the lost points. Congrats Nico for being the best of the rest and being consistent enough to win the championship!

Mercedes really did look dull trying team orders like that. It really wasn't needed and no fans want to see interference when the race is hotting up.

Quite true, it was quite lame of Mercs to interfere.

As some have mentioned above, I don´t think Vettel was to keen on passing Nico thoose last laps. Hamiltons plan failed.

Vettel is a 4 times world champion who is programmed to get the maximum points he can in any given race. If he didn't pass Rosberg it was because he couldn't, not because he felt generous. If yourself and others think otherwise, then I think that's lovely.

[Greasy]

Lovely maybe, but he's already suggested Hamilton had dirty tactics.
