Hamilton second title?
Lewis hamilton has takes huge advantage of his rival misfortune last weekend on Belgium Grand Prix. Lead from the start to finish line and not even Red Bull of Mark Webber can catch him. Alonso and Button retired with Vettel didn't scores any championship points, Hamilton on pole position to claims his second Formula 1 World Championship.
Despite Mark Webber only three points behind him. But with no experience battles for championship there's doubt Webber could challenge Hamilton for the tittle. And now with McLaren fully backup Hamilton for the championship fight, we believe no one can stop him now and McLaren always getting strong at the end of the season. Meanwhile Red Bull still not decided yet who's the number 1 driver and internal issues could be disaster in the end for the team.
All due respect to Alonso, but Ferrari never really strong this season except in Germany. After "lucky" championship wins for Raikkonen in 2007 and very unlucky lost for Massa in 2008, Ferrari struggle in almost the entire 2009 season and the opening race of 2010 they wins the Bahrain Grand Prix cause by very poor Sebastian Vettel sparks problems.
In Monza Ferrari will show their spirit and fight with 110% but I doubt they will win the Italian Grand Prix.
If Hamilton could retain his momentum, I think we'll see a new legends reborn.GrandPrix Center :hot:

I'd like Lewis to take it, but he has time on his hands, Mark does not have that luxury.Opinions are like ar5eholes, everyone has one.

I for one will be very happy if either Webber or Hamilton take the title. As much as I'd like to see a British World Champion for the third consecutive year, I'd quite like to see Webber winning it!

Hamilton should be praying for a Webber DNF and a Vettel podium to keep his WDC alive.Ayrton Senna, Legend. R.I.P.

I wonder if McLaren have got a handle on the blown diffuser yet on the tracks that are fiddly?Opinions are like ar5eholes, everyone has one.

If Hamilton picks up a big result at Monza then i think he might be very difficult to beat - he has had a habit of picking up better than expected results at less favourable tracks this year whilst rivals have taken points off each other, i can see this trend continuing with Vettel, Webber and Alonso still fighting for the points and the likes of Hamilton, Button and Kubica in the mix also, the big points will likely to be shared out as they have been so far. This will make it very difficult for anyone to mount a sustained challenge.
That said, i do consider that Webber ought to be considered favourite given the car advantage he should still have towards the end of the year, if he maintains a points advantage over Vettel"I" before "E" except after "C". Weird.

Who ever wins the WDC this year, in what is turning out to be a spectacularly close championship, will do so by what they accomplish on the track. And to date Hamilton and Webber have done very well to richly deserve their lead of the championship. I for one cannot recall a single race this year where an FIA call has benefited them. Please provide us with evidence for your conspiracy theory.you can't argue with results.
Tänak got 20 points closer to Evans, but as the main reason was a bad rally for Evans, I would say that Evans lost 20 points to Tänak, not Tänak gained. The point is, if the other one does not...
