Brazilian Grand Prix ***SPOILERS***

The final race of the season, and I know it's gonna be a cracker! :)

It's early, very early (just realised it's Tuesday, my bodyclock swears it's Wednesday), but it's the first time in 20 years that 3 people can win the championship at the last race, and the first time since 2003 that the championship's been so close!

Track map:



Some news snippets from the last 2 weeks:

Ferrari have recently extended Massa's contract to 2010, quashing speculation that he'll jump ship to another team. Formula1.com article, GPG discussion thread.

Wurz announced his immediate retirement shortly after the Chinese Grand Prix. His replacement for Brazil will be Kazuki Nakajima. Formula1.com article on Wurz's retirement, Formula1.com article on Kazuki Nakajima, GPG discussion thread on Wurz's retirement, GPG discussion thread on Nakajima.

The FIA have announced that a scrutineer will be present to ensure that the team plays fair to championship contenders Alonso and Hamilton. Formula1.com article, GPG discussion thread.


My personal prediction is that Hamilton will finish 3rd, Alonso will be 4th and won't be quick enough to beat him. Raikkonen to finish 1st, Massa 2nd, thereby giving Hamilton the championship.

Of course, now that I've predicted that, I know it won't happen.

Who do you think will win it?

Discuss! :)

P.S: Can people double-check links please? I got a feeling I screwed up at least one....

Well done turkey, somehow I was hoping to make it two in a row, But it seems you have jumped start. Anyway leave it be.
Although expect some critics. IT IS tuesday for sake.

Blimey, they must be bored! Unless it's a charity event of course. ;-)

My predictions for this race:
1. Raikkonen
2. Massa
3. Alonso
4. Hamilton
5. Heidfeld
6. Kubica
7. Kovalainen
8. Rosberg
9. Webber

Surely,thispredictions are for a dry race

Unless it rains, Hamilton 6th or lower is very unlikely to happen.

It's funny now to look back at the races' results and see where Kimi lost 2 or 3 points, which'd be very helpful now.

while karting, Rubens must be thinking "finally, i'm driving something faster than i've driven all season!".

@Rodrigo: every year we read that Interlagos' bumps are gone, and every year the drivers complain about them.

Rubens looks awesome in that car, his helmet i mean!

If only Honda raced with the black car this season...!

Also, Massa looks tiny!

well according to reports it looks like it might be a wet gp which i hope for. Makes it more exciting and more of a chance Hamilton loses control. ;)

I want from top 4 drivers:

1 - Kimi
2 - Massa
3 - Alonso
DNF - Hamilton

Kimi for WDC :)

I don't care about the results, as long as Hamilton will be crowned as champ ;)

I hope it does rain after the two amazing GP's weve had and it means there is more of a chance the Hondas will score :D
