The best season ever in the sport's history, and his emotion is quite wonderful, even with his petulant, brat behavior sometimes. Other Notable Events  Big ups to Sporting Kansas City, who finally got over the hump against the Dynamo to go to MLS Cup. We'll see if it will be Portland in their first MLS Cup or Real Salt Lake coming to Kansas City for the season's conclusion. It appears that Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic are back to being real good friends off the court again. RT @Rafael_Plaza Nadal y Djokovic.

It won't matter that much if Maria Sharapova gets Sven Groeneveld as her coach. She is still not a Grand Slam winner anymore if she has to encounter a healthy Serena Williams and at least Vika Azarenka on a fast surface. And that's with other players improving.

Checkered Flag: Sebastian Vettel has won the world championship for a third consecutive time  It was a great wild race that was not boring at all. Rather, it was just so fascinating to witness, as Jenson Button took the race, but the German 25-year-old took the world championship for a third season.    Vettel becomes only the 3rd driver to win three straight world titles, joining Schamucher and Fangio in that exclusive list.  The Final Overall Standings, both individually and for team: 

Here we go folks: Yes Michael Schumacher, you did cross the line yesterday with that disgusting move. And the fact it took you almost a day to realize that is quite sad : n post-race interviews the Mercedes driver suggested his tactics had been harsh but fair. However, having received a 10-place grid penalty for the next round from the Budapest stewards - and having had a day to reflect - Schumacher has now conceded that he overstepped the mark. “Yesterday right after the race I was still in the heat of the moment, but after I watched the scene with Rubens again, I must say that the stewards were right in their assessment - the manoeuvre against him was too hard,” he told his official website. “Of course I wanted to make it difficult for him to overtake and I showed him clearly that I didn’t want to let him down the inside, but I wasn’t trying to endanger him with my manoeuvre. If he felt that way, then sorry, that was not my intention.” Darrelle Revis is the 7th highest paid d...

Webber took the checkered flag in dominate style, winning the 8th to last race of the season to top the driver standings after Lewis Hamilton and McLaren's forgettable day. The full standings .

Sebastian Vittel, on the day his country takes on Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button's country in a crucial World Cup Round OF 16, has delivered a vital win for Red Bull in the historic Grand Prix of Europe in Valencia. More to come, and could it be a sign of omens.

Lewis Hamilton with a much badly needed win, taking the Turkish Garnd Prix. But the race changed with less than 20 laps left, when the nightmare thing for any team to witnessed happened when Sebastian Vettel collided with Mark Webber. The two teammates for Red Bull had a lot of tension as the weeks progressed, and it boiled over into a collision costing them the constructors lead. What a massive mistake. Here is the full summary and all of the particulars . The points standings get even tighter right now: Mark Webber still in the lead at 93, while Jenson Button in second with 88, Lewis Hamilton in third with 84, Fernando Alonso 79, and Sebastian Vettel with 78.

By the way, get this : Britain's Lewis Hamilton finished fifth after a tetchy exchange with his McLaren team over the radio, sparked by demands that he should hold back to preserve his brakes. More to follow ...

What a year for Brawn GP, and what a year for the second consecutive English driver to win the title , following Lewis Hamilton. Mark Werber had an immaculate drive, but it wasn't enough to Button from capturing arguably auto racing's premiere title.

Your product: Formula 1's current chaos admits its powerhouse teams threatening to leave the series and form a rival one. The threat by members of the F1 Teams Association (Fota) intensifies their row with world motorsport boss Max Mosley over his budget cap proposals. "The teams have declined to alter their original conditional entries to the 2010 F1 Championship," said the teams. Mosley is placing a cap at 40 million Euros. None of the main competitors want that. And none of the fans want this at all. Formula one is still big intentionally despite fading away in America. But maybe they could use an example from the States with how fracturing a popular auto racing series can ruin the sport for a long while: the Indycar series.
