Good luck

Circuit looks pretty good but it's a damned shame I won't be able to watch it due to the BBC shafting the licence fee-payer. Oh well.

I reckon it'll be a sadly boring end to the season, with Vettel driving off into the sunset. He seems like a nice guy, but I want different winners.

The picks you have entered are:

Winner: Sebastian Vettel

Second: Lewis Hamilton

Third: Fernando Alonso

Fourth: Kimi Raikkonen

Fifth: Pastor Maldonado

Sixth: Mark Webber

Seventh: Jenson Button

Eighth: Romain Grosjean

Ninth: Sergio Perez Mendoza

Tenth: Felipe Massa

Pole: Sebastian Vettel

You can follow the updates on this very site, Ed commentary is very good.


The picks you have entered are:

Winner: Pastor Maldonado - he said he could win, I believe him

Second: Fernando Alonso - once again, doing the best out of the tiniest odds

Third: Kimi Raikkonen - also said he could win more races, the team seems in good form now.

Fourth: Lewis Hamilton - I expect him to be very fast but to run into some trouble in the course of the race.

Fifth: Sebastian Vettel - some tracks work better for RBR, some don't.

Sixth: Mark Webber - he may arrive in front of Vettel, frustrating him of a position but I imagine he'll let his teammate through.

Seventh: Felipe Massa - still inspired until the end

Eighth: Romain Grosjean - he is being prudent for a good reason

Ninth: Paul di Resta - everyone is very close to each other at this stage

Tenth: Jenson Button - Jenson is not particularly showing his qualities lately, but he's got a good car.

Pole: Lewis Hamilton - expect brilliance from Lewis on the first race of the Circuit of the Americas!

Jido, I know, I've followed his comments in the past

It depends whether I listen on the wireless or online.

Jido doesn't like Sebastian Vettel it seems. Oh well, I'm sure Sebastian doesn't mind at all

I hope it turns out to be as good a race as the duel in the desert but I think it'll be pretty much a procession.

Winner: Seb Vettel
Second: Fernando (great driver; not so great car)
Third: Lewis Hamilton (unless McLaren forgets to attach a wheel)
Fourth: Old Reliable Mark Webber
Fifth: Kimi Raikkonen (great driver; not so great car)
Sixth: Jenson Button (another Old Reliable)
Seventh: Sergio Perez (a charger and a hungry one)
Eighth: Romain Groshean (assuming he makes the fifth lap)
Ninth: Felipe Massa (Old Not-So-Reliable)
Tenth: Nico Rosberg (who can't wait to beat Lewis next year)
Pole: Seb Vettel (you thought he'd be conservative this race? Ha!

Wish I could be there but family matters intervened. Next Year for sure!

That's not it, I like Vettel but I like the fight even more!

Also, as I said some tracks suit Red Bull better than others. We've seen it during the season and we could see it again in the last races.

It will depend in good part on qualifying, if past races are an indication.

I think the RBR car is great and really fast, but remember Ferrari and McLaren are faster on straight line, and there are other factors too. In my eyes the competition is still open.

Winner: Fernando Alonso

Second: Sebastian Vettel

Third: Kimi Raikkonen

Fourth: Mark Webber

Fifth: Lewis Hamilton

Sixth: Felipe Massa

Seventh: Jenson Button

Eighth: Romain Grosjean

Ninth: Bruno Senna

Tenth: Pastor Maldonado

Pole: Sebastian Vettel
