So who will be celebrating come the fireworks at the end of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix this Sunday? An article I saw on the Official F1 site (click here) confirmed what I spoke about in a previous post with regard to Hamilton's 17 point lead providing little comfort given the double points situation for the last race. Glad to hear that this gimmick is likely not to be repeated next year!
There is talk of reliability playing a factor and this would be another sad way to end the championship (unless it was Rosberg's car that was falling out of the race...!) I hope that this does not play a factor in the final result.
Ultimately, comfort has to be found in the previous results achieved by the two drivers in Abu Dhabi with Hamilton unquestionably enjoying the better form (winning in 2011 and almost again in 2012 and only failing once to finish outside the top 2 when he has finished).
However, on a final note, I had a dream last night in which Hamilton crashed out in the race and Rosberg went on to win the race and the championship - I was very, very disappointed. But then Massa was still driving for Ferrari in the dream so I am hoping it wasn't an accurate premonition of the future...
