Simple. Just say who will be the World Champion of 2009? Interesting to see what you think after the European GP's have finished.

Only four drivers left who can take the crown! Let's vote!

My choice goes to Button. I think he is consisent enough to take the world title.

Jenson will take it. Rubens needs too much luck for it to be a realistic chance.

I still feel that despite of Barrichello's efforts in the last few races, his stalling at Spa was not quite champion like tbh. I'm still voting for him though, but once Button gets a hold of his tyre warming issue, it will be even harder for Barrichello to make it.

Impossible. With 4 races to go, he needs to win them all, and Button not to score any point. That would make 80-80, but Kimi would have 5 wins against Button's 6.

I think Jenson's found that spare bag inside him with those two spare buttons when one comes loose.

Button perhaps, but in the inside I'm rooting for Rubens, how incredible that would be. You just need one major incident and it would be miracle if everything would go as predicted on current basis.

Did you know Rubens would become the driver that had started the most GP's when they first won the world title?

(Beating Mansell presumably)

The Formula 1 World Champion MUST be Jenson Button. I really think this if he continues to assures points here and here, or give one or two wins.

(if Brawn make a One-Two at Suzuka, number of suicide in Honda motor company would be in augmentation for 80 -90 %. lolol)

I don't think a RBR driver still has a chance. So it'll be Brawn and I guess Button is definitely in the better position. He's my pick.

I think in the end Button will win it, but I hope it will be Rubens.

The Red Bull drivers haven't got a chance, as they are in serious engine trouble.

If I have to choose, I'm going for Rubens. Always the number 2 at Ferrari, would be a great ending to his career (closing stages anyway)

Rather saw Vettel or Webber take it, coz the last 4 years I've always rooted for the underdog, but if it isn't mathematically possible, I hope it's Barrichello. Just to see him dance on the podium.

Have some strange feeling something's gonna happen to him in Brazil like every year... Retiring from the lead, crash on first lap, mechanical failure, you name it. The track is Barrichello's favourite, but in all his, what is it, 15 attempts ? he never finished higher than 3rd in a Ferrari in 2004. Should he tie up in points with Button in Brazil, going into the finale in Dubai, we're in for a nailbiter.

Just hope it's going down to the wire.

14 points in front, 4 races remaining, Button takes the title by a few points.

I'll say Rubens, he seems pretty much on fire right now and I'm banking on Button completely messing up at least once in the remaining races. This season has been pretty short on drama but I'm thinking there might be some playing out in the season finale.

it is going to be difficult for rubens to win it though!

usually when the Brwans are doing well both drivers are close together on times so that means in the race rubens will only be 1 place ahead of button and only take 2pints out of him which isnt enough

he needs some bad luck on jenson in order to win

I think it's going to be an anticlimax with Button winning next race and Rubens not scoring. Then Button is 24 ahead with 30 to go but the championship will be practicaly over
