I'm going optimistic. Hamilton to get pole position, and lead the race from lights to flag with no dramas. This way I may avoid some sort of stress related medical emergency.
Hamilton is allowed a Gearbox change here, whilst Rosberg isn't, could be factor, esp. given the pounding they've been given over the last two races?
Here's an interesting question for you. If Hamilton is first, with Nico one second behind him and pushing (but they're clear of the rest), should Hamilton slow down and let him pass on the straight, thus avoiding the chance of Nico knocking him out the race when trying to overtake. (Note, I'm not implying Nico would intentionally do this, just pointing out that there is a small chance of it happening with Nico overtaking competitively, and no chance when doing so on a simple straight...)

I'll either be wandering around London or driving back to the Westcountry. Could put the radio on in the car, but think the tension would not be good for the driving!
I'll be watching intently in the hope Hamilton gets a puncture caused by Massa...Just kidding I hope for a battle of attrition, where finally they go wheel to wheel with no external factors coming into play. But we all know that won't happen.
