    I imagine if he were racing today and was in a race winner he'd do the gentlemanly thing and offer to swap it with Alonso

    This one could be pivotal now.

    Hamilton's head of steam right now is huge. Mercedes are coming of two dominant displays and hamilton has put his team mate in his place too.

    However.

    singapore won't suit their longer wheel base.... so... Will ferrari come back strong OR will Red bull break tiffosi hearts.

    Anything could happen here. I am half thinking of gambling on ricciardo for the win but have to back vettel.

    One thing is for sure. If hamilton comes out of this race with an increased points lead it will be huge for the title race.

    I think RBR in with a shout, but Daniel for me.

    Max seems to be over-driving at the moment.

    Fingers crossed for Vettel, for the good of the championship.

    Hoping the Red Bulls can get up there too, would be great if a Ferrari 1-2 then the 2 Red Bulls.

    okay, I think I've added the scores from Hungary onwards correctly, I even withheld from giving myself 5 bonus points for the effort. I think I'll go down the bookies and bet on whoever Bando picks.

    I think Mercedes have something up their sleeves...they seem to be talking down their car a bit much for this race...i think something is up and we are in for a surprise. But I expect Danny in that Red Bull is the one to watch...Ves is getting a bit desperate for results and not driving well at the moment. If he starts P2... I wouldn't want to be in P1.

    Big Ern, you have tomcat606 twice. You have him on 1 point and then again on 2 points.

    TY, I dunno which one is right though as it's a mistake from Hungary post that I copied and pasted across. I'll let him keep 2.

    Question...What if Bottas gets poll, Vettel 2nd and Lewis 3rd? Or, Kimi gets poll, Hamilton 2nd and Vettel 3rd? What will the teams do then?
