Well it seems the top spot is taken, but the fight for second is really hotting up. If you remove Vettel from the championship the fight at the top is as close as ever. This is the second championship Alonso was talking about! :lol:

I for one hope Alonso takes it... 8)
Generally I don't care about what people say. I have to be clear with myself. When everything goes well, people celebrate you, when you make mistakes people criticize you.

If Ferrari and McLaren are reasonably matched during the season, my bet would be on Alonso.

I think either Fred, or Chopper (Webber not Mike) will get it.
The Boss has a great shot but he seems to be vacillating over whether he wants to get the maximum points out of the car, or simply put on a good show. At the end of the day I think that Hamilton and Button both will go for maximum points as they are expected by their employers to do that. So I think it's a little early to know with any certainty!

Hamilton will take it easily.

Alonso has to catch hamilton first.

Button is just a distraction right now. He took out both Alonso and Hamilton and wasted the Canada points, when either ALonso or Hamilton could have made better use of that 25 points.

That 25 points did nothing against Vettel, it only eased the pressure on him.

I don't think Alonso and Lewis care for second though. At least hamilton, he probably thinks a brazil 2008 can happen again in terms of the championship.

Suppose Vettel meets in a finger accident and has to miss out 4 races?
For Sure!!

Makes no difference. First is first and second is nowhere. During Schu's dominant years with the "dream team" F1 attendance and TV viewership suffered. Let us hope there is no repetition.

Sure with an attitude like that, I guess your the perfect example of why the attendance and viewing figures dropped :roll:

He wont do anything with those points and you know it.

Just as useful as Massa winning silverstone. Just a black hole of good points for the real challengers.

Sounds harsh, but it's true.

At the moment Ferrari and Mclaren need to employ team orders. Massa and Button need to step on Vettel's fingers wherever he rests them.
For Sure!!

Realistically I will go with Webber. He was actually keeping up with Vettel quite well In Spain.

I went for Webber too, he is in the fastest car, but just doesn't seem to have any luck at the moment.
Felipe Baby!

I went for Massa and I don't care who knows! :)

If Ferrari get behind him he'll do it, but sadly Ferrari are blinded by a big bag of Spanish bank money.

Relisticly, I don't care who is 2nd. To me 2nd is just the 1st of the loosers. No one remembers who came 2nd but they remember who came 1st and that is the only position that matters.

Keep it on topic please lads.

I know Massa probably isn't in contention, but I thought it was unfair not to include him since he has the same equipment as the favoured Alonso.
