Most people picked Alonso-Massa-Raikkonen (order variable). It'd be fun if the three were to retire and someone like Fisichella or Heidfeld would win... :D

gktaz: you may get your wish: if Ralphie qually's high enough to be in the mix for the first lap or so there's no telling who he might take out. Alonso, though, seems to have inherited Michael's luck, so it's hard to imagine him ever being out of the running at the end.
