My favorite race of the season. This track is by far one of the most technical tracks. Great car control will be a big factor with the slow speed corners. Throttle corn will be another big factor.

I'm going to pick Lewis to win.

I went with Lewis also. I think he has the mental edge after Nico got a wrist slap for the Belgium contact.

Going with Lewis simply out of prior win. However, I think Kimi will do a top 5 run, and if I were going to do an outside bet, I'd put it on Alonso to take 3rd.

The official-unofficial-UT-WAG though is Massa.

Had to go with Hamilton. To me he seems like he owns the night.

good track for the Red Bulls.

LH and NR will mess each other up enough for Ricciardo to slide through
