One race left in F1 2010 and these 4 drivers are the only ones with a mathamatical chance of winning it at Abu Dhabi.

Alonso is my bet, but I want to see Webber get it.
Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005

Want Hamilton to win, but he won't, he doesn't have the car (but anything can happen of course)
I can't stand Alonso so I vote Webber, but vettel can not be undesestimaterd.

I have no idea, to be honest. This season has been fantastic though. I hope for Mark Webber, but would not put money on him. In this company, he is the sparrow among the sparrow hawks. If pressed, I think Alonso will take the title.

I think Alonso will take it. But I would love to see Vettel winning. This has been a great season, hope to see a fantastic last race.

Alonso, obviously. Massa is his puppet, he and Ferrari can do whatever they want with him, so in desperate times some cheap trick would be used to make him the champion as in the past.

Always been a Ferrari fan....  
 
and I like Alonso's style, too. Tongue
 
 
Happy that Hamilton is out of it ... the man's got no class...
 
Webber has been around soo long, he would be like Mansell.... a one-time fluke
 
Vettel has a big future, though!!! Star
 
-------------
 
BTW,
 
the attacks on Ferrari's team strategy are generally unfair... every team does it (if they don't, they're stupid.... since when is F1 a fair and square sport??? it's a bloody circus), but only Ferrari gets aimed at using it successfully....

I'm rooting for Vettel, but I think Webber has the best chance of winning.

Ok..Hamilton is obviously a brilliant driver so where does he have no class? Is it his manners? If that's the case Alonso also has no class.

Webber fan and hope he can do it, but I'd never count out Alonso and Ferrari in a must win scenario.

Hamilton is indeed a brilliant driver.... but living his private life in front of the cameras (I'm not saying others don't so - not paying attention really - , but I seem to only hear of him)... that's all I meant

Fair enough. I suppose. My wife doesn't like him either.

My favourite F1 season was that with the fabulous competition between Mansel and Senna. 1994 maybe? In the last decade there have been years in which I didn't watch any race at all, 2010 has been one such. It was a combination of me losing interest in watching TV about 10 years ago and F1 becoming boring under Schumi's ruthless reign. I never recovered, though the competition has apparently become interesting again in the last years.

Ayrton Senna passed away 1. May in 1994 at Imola so you must have been referring to 1991. But not even that season was half as exciting as this one. I refer to the poll above where also I got it totally wrong. Eight days ago, there was five contenders for the title. That was dwindled down to four this morning and x amount different types of possible scenarios. 

I also believe the close season and the next season will be very exciting too. In short; F1 has gone from being a cure against insomnia to being a serious threat against those of us with a faulty heart. I loved every second of this season.

You are right Sir, Tongue
