This weekend we are off to Brazil to, what could be, Filipe Massa's last grand prix. After being given a hero's farewell last season and then being given a lifeline, it will be interesting to see just how the fans will react this time out.

I feel that it will return to the same old with the Mercedes dominating proceedings.
Maybe then Seb, Max, Daniel and Kimi. Perez will again shine in a race close to home and a couple of Renaults with Ocon hot on their heels.

These be my thoughts...What say you?

Grid Penalties
Daniel Ricciardo Red Bull 10 position for MGU-H replacement
Pierre Gasly Tor Rosso 10 position for MGU-H replacement
Brendon Hartley Toro Rosso 10 position for MGU-H replacement
Both Toro Rosso's look like incurring additional penalties for more engine component replacements following problems in FP1.
