Twitter reacts to Lewis Hamilton, his dog Roscoe and that Sports Personality win

Last night Mercedes F1 driver Lewis Hamilton was named BBC's Sports Personality of the Year 2014. The driver had the suit on, he collected the huge trophy and... he also had his bulldog Roscoe by his side.

So, while Twitter had messages for Hamilton after his win, Roscoe was getting tongues (and tails) wagging too...

And here he is, Lewis Hamilton and his bulldog Roscoe

He had a little nap. (Roscoe, not Hamilton)

What a total pro...

We're pretty sure Roscoe's just wanting the photographers to get his good side

He's totally used to playing it cool, mind

The canine mentions kept flooding in #TeamRoscoe

Back to that Sports Personality of the Year win and the famous faces were sending their congrats

Who doesn't love a quick winner's 'videobomb'?

Runner-up Rory McIlroy shared his support

There were a few grumbles about the result

1 in 3 people voted for Lewis Hamilton certainly not reflective of what people saying on here. Must have been too busy voting to tweet!!

But it was a comfortable win

Hamilton (and Roscoe) shared this message of thanks

While Gary Linker's voice just about made it over the finish line...

Thank heavens that's over with, congratulations @LewisHamilton on a spectacular year.
