Wow, this is
the toughest question of all Luke. I don’t need to tell you that any 1 of 4 drivers could realistically win it.
But you’ve asked, so I’ll stick my neck out and risk looking like a fool in a few months time!
I genuinely believe
Lewis Hamilton will win the
Driver’s Championship.
I’m not just being a sentimental old fool here. I’ll explain why.
This season
reminds me of two years ago (Alonso’s first title win). Alonso had a strong start to that season, built up a good lead by the halfway stage and nursed it home in the second half of the season when the Kimi/McLaren package was stronger.
I think the
current points system will cause the same result this season.
Hamilton has, in my opinion, enough of a lead to see it home. I think the
Ferrari package is going to be the strongest for the remainder of the season, but I don’t see either Kimi or Massa winning every race, which is what either of them would need to do to take the title.
Each time they finish in front of Hamilton, they’ll only be taking a couple of points off him, which won’t be enough, as Kimi found 2 years ago.
The
MP4-22 doesn’t look like it will DNF at any point and all Hamilton needs to do is finish each race, which is what he’s been doing, to take the title.
So there we are and as for the
Constructor’s Title, I’d say
McLaren either way, because Hamilton and Alonso will surely both outscore one of the Ferraris.
Anyway that’s my opinion, get the champagne on ice!
So what do you think Luco?
Any other F1 fans out there with a take on this?
I’m gonna stick a poll up as well to get some opinions and make
'Ask Greg' democratic.
And now...
CHAMPAGNE!!!
. But would love to see it go down to the wire with all 4 in with a shout. What a race that would be.
