I'm going to call a Vettel, Alonso, Raikkonen, Hamilton order in the drivers championship. Only bit I'm unsure about is which way around Alonso and Raikkonen will be.
He drove a very clever race today but, even so, he'll be lucky to hang on to Seb and Kimi at this rate.
He's third in the championship, the car is quick and he's a great driver. They need to sort out their tyre wear if they're going to challenge the top three but it's still a four way fight in my opinion, albeit with Hamilton fourth favourite.
Yep, that's a fair assessment, I think (as DHC and JC also say). It makes things more interesting, although another Vettel WDC looks increasingly likely.
I voted Alonso to win the title (as usual), but i have a strange feeling Kimi could do it. He's staying in touch with Vettel at the moment, and there will be tracks coming up where the RB will struggle.
Have to say that was a cracking race today. Nice to see that the stewards stayed out of it mostly. Shame the Ferrari's didn't have a proper crack of the whip though.
its all about the upgrades merc bring to spain.if those work,then he has a great chance. spain,monaco and canada are usually places where lewis shines.
Di Resta was great today, I'm happy for Grosjean to get back up there on the podium after being anonymous and indeed that was probably the most anonymous podium ever, but I would have liked to see Di Resta up there. Still 4th is a great result for him. Yes I did really just say that
Compare the reliability (In-race). Australia - Gearbox Failure MSC DNF - 5th HAM Malaysia - Span out by Grosjean 10th MSC - 3rd HAM China - Loose Wheel Nut MSC DNF - 3rd HAM Bahrain - in a car that was poor (compared to the W04 in Bahrain) anyway 10th MSC - 5th HAM So far Hamilton has not been done over by shoddy reliability in a **** car. But to be fair, his talent to fight the top teams has never wavered.
Schumacher managed 197 points in his three seasons for Mercedes. I reckon Hamilton will surpass that in Brazil.
