Just before the mid season ROS started to loose his cool and HAM gained alot. But after mid season ROS regained his cool and focused on his performance. ROS has got himself a gap of one race failure. If ROS has a failure in one of races, the season will become spicy.

@zia1288 and @rozzzzz
The title is well and truly over and it would be ridiculous if Hamilton wins from now on as it would create a controversy which F1 don't want at the moment. Also it would made a fool of Rosberg if he lost it from now. The fact is Rosberg only needs to finish 2nd in every race in the last 4 races if Hamilton wins all of them which is not a big problem considering how Hamilton is performing since the summer break. Also the chances of failure for both of them are not same, Hamilton have more failures then Rosberg until now so another failure for him is more likely then for Rosberg.

Now I want to know something about on what channel are you watching F1 for last few months because since June I am not been able to watch F1 on TV at all as my cable operator have gone berserk with sports channels and even after quite a few complains still have not set all the legal sports channels on the system. Because of no other option regarding cable I have to rely on internet streaming for last 5 or so months where the quality is sometimes good and sometimes bad.

I could only watch 1 race on TV as my cable operator doesn't seem to like sports much and keeps mingling with channels. I have watched almost all races on online streaming.
