Who do you think will be leading the pack now all the pressure for the driver's championship is off?
I think Vettel will finish of the season with a win!
I hope for a battle between the two British champions - Jenson and Lewis.
Kimi :D
I hope it's kimi, but it will be between Fettel and Mark. Mark is in great form at the moment.
But this gives us a chance to see if Button is any good or if it was all Honda/Brawn. I would bet against him, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and for this race consider he was playing it safe for the c'ship. But this will be the proving ground and we'll see what he's worth and how he plays when he has nothing to lose.
Lewis will be quick. He'll qualify top 5 as will Kimi. Sutil and Trulli will be near there too.
I hope it's a free from all brawl, with everyone at maximum attack mode.
The track looks absolutely stunning.
I don't think it will be Button. Given all the media attention around his winning of the WDC it's hard to imagine his mind will be fully on the job.
Who will be the first to crash in the tunnel?
I think I went for Button, followed by Lewis and Rubens.
The hot temperatures will suit the Brawn, and the stop-start-ish nature of the track will suit McLaren.
Red Bull will be there or thereabouts but I don't think they'll win.
The track looks awesome. It looks to have the overtaking opportunities of Bahrain combined with some street circuit characteristics.
Also, in-case anyone's forgotten, it will be the first ever day-to-night race. That could bring other cars into play as it gets cooler later on.
I've read that the track is quite dirty, using the non-racing line to overtake would be difficult unfortunately.Quote:

I think that if this race was held at night, and some of the stands and corners had fluorescent paint everywhere, then it could easily pass as something from the Speed Racer film.
I am a little aprehensive about the pit exit having a totally blind corner in it. Hamilton made rather a hash of the exit in Brazil; if that happened at Yap Marinas, and someone was following then potentially we could have a pile up in the pits.
Maybe some sort of light system informing the cars following that there's something in the tunnel?
I think I'm starting to like this track.
The grandstands and barriers are very close to the track. :up:
I'm struggling to find anything amazing about the circuit.
You mean there's another race? wow!
