Whos watching the race?? Its the final race of the season and it has been an interesting season so far. Im a fan of Alonso and hoping he can hold back the red bulls to keep the championship. Although, congrats to Red Bull team for clinching the Constructor Standings. its an amazing track and I hope to make one of those races soon just to check out the amusement park they have at the track with a roller coaster going 150MPG!!! :buttrock:

I'm calling it... Alonso wins but only because one of the Red Bull cars, which will be in the lead, will have an engine malfunction and loose the race because of it. But if Alonso wins the Championship regardless I don't care, but last race is quite hair raising.

I'm on the same lines as Jurrian.

I don't know... Vettel has a very low hour engine he will be using for the race.. but so does Alonso .. he had was in 3rd for the practice times this morning with Vettel just ahead of him and Hamilton leading the pack.. so it definitely will be interesting thats for sure.. So honestly if Vettel gets out ahead of Alonso I think he can keep himself out front the entire race.. I guess lets see what happens at Qualifying..

Yes they do both have low hour engines and Vettel has the upper hand mainly because he won this race last year, but what you need to figure is that lets say Vettel wins the race, and gets 25 points (if Webber is out of the picture), that means that Vettel will have 256 points on the season. Alonso will have to place 4th or better in order to beat that, which he's been doing pretty consistently.

If Webber places first, Alonso can place second and Alonso will still take away the win for the season just by one point. The only way I see this race going down besides my hopes of Vettel not being in the picture is if Webber places first, and Vettel holds back Alonso so that Webber gets the win, but I doubt Vettel will be able to have the maturity to let Webber win the Championship, he'll want the win.

If Vettel gets in front of Webber, Alonso will still win while being the points leader, which would be absolutely amazing if they place 1 - Vettel 2 - Webber 3 - Alonso.

BUT to be honest, as long as Hamilton doesn't win anything, I'll be happy.

Yes you make a very valid point... thats so true with the fact that Will Vettel have the maturity to let Webber win.. Redbull stated that they will be racing for themselves and said they would rather not win a championship as long as its each man for themselves.. that would be pretty stunning if the finish is 1 Vettel 2 Webber and 3 Alonso.. but I'm hoping Alonso gets at least 2nd! either way a awesome race!!:buttrock:

Wish we could do like F1 parties kind of like UFC lol

Not a bad idea... Obviously it would have to be recorded off a DVR since I rarely have the time to watch it while it's live from the strange hours of being in different countries etc...

But I like your thinking ;)
