Well after nearly 9 months, 18 Circuits in 17 countries, across 5 continents (Europe, North America, Asia, South America & Australasia) we still don't know who will be crowned this seasons F1 world champion.

Qualifying is over and Massa has pole and Lewis is back in 4th behind Felipe's team mate Kimi. According to the BBC this is a crucial advantage for Felipe and while its a nice advantage to have being on pole, your main rival 3 places back behind your team mate if it finished that way Lewis would still be champion.

I fully expect Lewis to go on the charge and try and win the race and i just hope that he doesn't do something silly and give the stewards any opportunity to hand the title to Ferrari.

While Massa's team mate got himself in-front of lewis his team mate Heikki is back in 5th and whether he can get involved in the battle is doubtful.

The Constructors championship is fairly settled with the 2 ferrari drivers only needing 7 or 8 points between them even if the 2 Mclarens finished 1 and 2.

Prediction time
If all the 4 front runners stay  running i expect Massa to drive away at the front which he's proven he can do from pole position, Kimi to finish 2nd with Lewis 3rd and take the world championship.

If Massa does win the title i just hope its because of the race and not down to a stewards decision, its been a  exciting season and for the 2nd time in 2 years its gone to the last race, I hope Lewis does take the title but if it does go to Felipe at least it will have been a good season, the FIA aside of course.
