Rosberg has to win the race while keeping Hamilton from 3rd or lower in order to take the title...

Looking at the record, mercedes finished most of the race as 1-2 this year....

Nico will need to be fast and hope LH does have some sort of issue. Williams should be very fast and that might help as Abu Dhabi has the long straight.

I hate the fact that double points could decide driver's championship. That said, Nico's dad won the championship while only winning one race that year, so it's not like F1 hasn't had a history of goofy point scoring system.

yes, but do they need two world champ aka expensive drivers at the same time?


Button is better but Magnussen is not that bad as a rookie...

Alonso can help the development thus should they need another experienced driver, that's the question..

Well it time for the Big One!!! Last F1 Race of the year. Rosberg has the pole and Hamilton next in line. Its going to be a close race.

Well the end to another great F1 season!! Hamilton wins the race and the Championship. Glad our guy won but wanted to see him and Rosberg fight till the last lap. The off season is going to be interesting so until next year guys and gal.

Meh. I was really looking forward to a good battle. Sad for Rosberg and the technical difficulties. Happy for Massa though!

Nicole can take her fake crying elsewhere.

I liked the race overall. Hoped for Nico to have more of a battle but his car was not having it. LH deserved the title.

Dont give up yet on this season there is test this week in Abu Dhabi and the new Honda motor will be run in a special Mclaren built to test the chassis/motor integration. Honda are talking very cocky about how good this motor is going to be. Like they are saying they expect to win next year.

Was a good season and nice to see Massa doing well in Brazil and Abu Dhabi!
