Default F1: Brazil


As I see it:
Vettel and Webber a bit lighter than usual in qualifying so Vettel takes pole and Webber is second. This would allow Vettel to run and hide during the race while Webber does a blocking job.

Brawn to take constructors title.
Drivers title to go to Abu Dhabi.

Although if its pissing it down it could be anyones race

Regardless of what Vettel and Barrichello achieve Button needs the equivalent of two sixth places.

If neither of Vettel or Barrichello wins two sevenths would do...

If Vettel doesn't finish in the first two, he's out. Even if he wins and Button is fifth Vettel can't win. If Barrichello wins and Button is third, Button is champion... Barrichello could match Button's points total but Button would be Champion based on more wins...

Sounds straight forward, doesn't it?

If it is wet on Sunday, Brazil could be a lottery and it could mean that the pressure is on Button in Abu Dhabi or that he's done and dusted by Sunday night...

I doubt button will win the race but I think he might clinch the title. All he needs to do is avoid dropping 5 points to Rubens or 7 points to Vettel.

I hope that the drivers championship ends this weekend because I'm getting bored of it. I would rather that it was out of the way so they can have a season finale where they are all just going for a race win rather than the endless will he won't he.

If Bernie had his way with race wins sealing the victory then Button would have been champion long ago. Not sure if that would have been a good thing or not.

Love to see button go out and rubens/vettel 1 & 2 leading to an interesting final race.

Would like JB to win the championship but having a great 2 races supersedes that...

Help please!!!!!!

I land in Madrid 30 mins before the race starts.

I stand zero chance of getting through 3 days there without finding out the result.

So.....how can I watch the race without discovering the result first please?

I guess there are places that stream it online, but I wont get to my hotel until the race has started - how do I access a slightly delayed (~1 hour) full recording of the race without discovering the result??

Oh the anguish
