Simple as title. As we enter the business end of the season who do you think has the nerve and bottle to do it?
Alonso, Vettel or Hamilton, but it's a tough one to call, the McLaren seems to be working well hungary, spa and monza they've won easily, different types of track, so a big positive for Hailtons chances, Alonso keeps plugging away, getting podiums, if he can keep up the consistency he shold do it, and Vettel, he's been unlucky in a few races and has probably lost 40-50 points or so due to his alternator and cucumber-gate, the next few tracks should suit the red bull better than the last 2 have, but he still raced very well in those and finished higher than expected in Spa and was running higher than expected in Monza, it's a tough one to call and that's without the sneaky Finn, trying to win without winning. I'd liek to see Hamilton win it, then we'd have 3 double WDC's on the grid.
Alonso, he makes sure he scores points when others drivers good days and takes advantage when his rivals make mistakes or trip over each other (like Valencia/Malaysia). I am sure it will go down to the wire though
I called Alonso back around the 4th race of the season and I won't back out now. That said, isn't it good to have a thrilling title race again?
Can't see beyond Alonso still. If Alonso starts making mistakes then Hamilton, Kimi, Vettel and Webber all still have a shot.
Hamilton of course If the Mercedes upgrades work then Ferrari could be in major trouble for the remaining races. Although apparently they have a big upgrade coming for Singapore. It's going to be an exciting final end to the season for the neutrals but torture for the supporters of the contnders.
Kimi to do a 2007 and come from behind and pip Alonso and Hamilton again, I can't see why the remaining tracks won't favour the Lotus and surely by the law of averages he's due a race win or two? Realistically, Alonso, very consistent, but should that consistancy dip then Hamilton could take advantage, also, if they sort out their alternator issues then Vettel should contend. In order of who I would like to win: =1 Kimi, Lewis 2 Alonso 3 Vettel Order they are likely to be come the end of the season: Alonso Hamilton Vettel Kimi
I agree with BIL that the performance of other cars is going to be crucial, if Mclaren continue to have the fastest car, then the speed of the Red Bull, Mercedes and Lotus will determine how easy it is for Alonso to continue his 'damage limitation' exercise. I think if the Ferrari can average as the second or third fastest car for the rest of the season, Alonso's consistency should see him home, but if the Ferrari is consistently slower than both the Red Bull and Mclaren, with Mercedes and Lotus in the mix too, then Alonso will struggle more for points and we could see Hamilton catch up. Personally, I'd love it to be Kimi, but whilst the Lotus is consistent I can't see it having the outright pace to challenge for race wins enough, although I'm more than happy to be proved wrong on this one! I take it that it's too late to add a poll on this now?
I enjoyed this quote from Fernando: "If I had to choose between Hamilton or Vettel, I would choose Räikkonen". Rest of the article is here
I think Hamilton. He has the best car by some margin it looks like and unless he's ******ed, he should win most of the races left.
