I came so close to voting for Nico, and think he will most probably win, but something also tells me there could be some desperation moves on lap one that just might take one or both Mercs out. While they have been more or less giving each other a bit more room than earlier in the season, it is getting down to crunch time. I think Verstappen could well benefit from a melee, provide he too can keep his nose clean at the start.
