Remember When Lewis Hamilton Won F1 World Title In Brazil (Video)

WATCH: Remember When Lewis Won The F1 Title In Brazil

It's five years since those dramatic moments at the end of the Brazilian Grand Prix when Felipe Massa crossed the finish to send thousands of Brazilians crazy, thinking he had won the F1 world championship. Except..

Not far behind Lewis Hamilton was doing his utmost to get past Sebastian Vettel again (sound familiar?) after the German had passed him on the penultimate lap to clinch the fifth place he needed for the title. As the race went into the last lap, it looked as though Hamilton had blown his chance. Except..

Nearly within sight of the chequered flag, he came upon Timo Glock struggling in the wet on slick tyres allowing Hamilton to cruise past and become Britain's first world champion since Damon Hill in 1996.

There won't be any such title dramatics tomorrow at Interlagos with Vettel having already wrapped up the championship but with Hamilton enjoying some success with an ever-improving Mercedes team, can he dare to dream for 2014?
