He came, he saw, he conquered; well actually he came second… But that was good enough for Lewis Hamilton to emphatically stamp his name for a sixth time on the FIA Formula 1 World Championship for Drivers.
Joe Saward, Phil Horton, James Moy, and Graham Harris were all in Austin to bring you today's bumper Lewis edition of Motorsport Monday with a full race report and an in-depth feature on how he hammered Formula 1 in 2019.
Before all the fireworks in Austin, the MotoGP boys were in Sepang for this year's Malaysian MotoGP where Maverick Viñales made up for his costly mistake in Phillip Island and won the race convincingly.

Last week we saw the last running, for two years, of Rally de España in Salou, south of Barcelona. This week our rallies man Jerry Williams takes some time to pontificate in his postcard from Catalunya, as to just why, in his opinion, the FIA and the sport's commercial promoters have made the wrong decision. He also has a moving tribute to the late Russell Brookes who departed, all too early, for the stages in the sky last week.
