2010 Abu Dhabi GP Official Thread *Spoilers*

Just found out: If Vettel wins and Alonso is 5th, then Vettel is CHAMPION as he's had more 4th places

If Webber finishes 2nd behind Vettel and Alonso finishes 5th, then they'd all be tied on 256 points. It's quite unlikely...

Lewis and Button are the key to this championship tbh.

Webber must get past alonso and all alonso has to do is take him out, that will be interesting

Vettel will need to hold off the mclarens who are going for it and down the back straight the should pass him.

There are going to be some very careful drivers out there, but both vettel and Lewis really need to win this race to have any chance.

Not going to happen (not intentionally anyway). Alonso needs to finish, especially if Vettel or Webber are in strong positions, so he's not going to wipe someone out to remove them. He won't even put himself in the position Webber did in Singapore... Webber was unbelievably lucky to get away with that without significant damage.

It's not like Alonso has a history of doing this. Unlike someone in a silver car used to do. He had the perfect opportunity to do it to Hamilton at Interlagos in turn 4 in 2007 but raced fair, despite the reported acrimony in the team.

Edit: On an editing mission today. *slaps himself*

As well as Button, Massa will be important as well as I'm sure Ferrari have told him to get past Webber into Turn 1 at any cost.

Off topic, but Willi Weber has said that Hulk is leaving Williams according to GP Update.

I think there's still a lot of surprises to unfold in the off season...

brilliant race so far.

Well, Ferrari threw this away.

yeah, Red Bull did a great job to trick them into pitting early. Fernando could have had it if he stayed out like Jenson is doing.

Irritated at Alonso's lack of urge to take a risk and sock it down the inside.

The suspense now... This is breathtaking!

Legard: 'Oh, the rear wing was it? Either way, it's a wing.'

What a f***ing idiot that man is.

Fantastic work Sebastian, he deserves it as he had the highest raw pace pretty much all season and should have done it earlier due to failures.

Watch out record book!

That's how it's f**king done, right there.

CONGRATS SEBASTIAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ferrari handed it to RedBull.

In hindsight, Vettel has had more badluck than he deserves.

The fact that he only lead the WDC over the line says it all about this season. A great end, and the guy deserves the WDC. Still a prick, just a quick one :p!

A shame Kubica ruined a great Lewis-Vettel battle, but thats racing.

JB gives Bridgestone an epic leaving present... Their tyres are too good, and that was the problem this year.

edit - After seeing yet another Alonso complain at Petrovs awesome racing, im glad Vettel got it over Alonso.

"Trulli was slowing down like he wanted to have a picnic" LOL

WOW...

Also, loved how Alonso waved his fist at Petrov and he just shrugs and steers in Alonso's direction.

Woohoo! prepare for the finger! :P

Petrov Says:


...Problem?
