It's got to be one of Vettel, Webber or Hamilton IMO. Red Bull have got the pace at the moment, they've just got to start being more reliable and stop getting caught up in things. I'm gonna go for Vettel.

I think Vettel will get it. I think either of the red bull drivers will (should) take it, but any of those 5 drivers can win it still.

I hope it's either Webber, Button or Hamilton.

Having to vote for only one I chose Hamilton.

Although Vettel's been going backwards, I think he'll JUST ABOUT claw it back, but only on the back of a few "poor" performances by Mark Webber. As in, accidental poor performances.

Webber will get it and he deserves it, when Vettel doesn't get his act together.

It'll be one of the McLaren drivers. Red Bull seem intent on doing what McLaren did in 07.

I think there's a difference though, I do believe that there is a sense of friendship between Lewis and Jenson, no matter how much they over-egg it for the purposes of TV. There's still respect there.

Vettel and Webber, though...there's nothing there. It's not at the point of Alonso v Hamilton yet, but it's not far off. And again it's being exacerbated by a team principal favouring a golden child.

I would like Webber to win just so he can take the number one to Renault or Mercedes and leave Horner with the 3 and 4 again. But for the moment I'm going with Hamilton because I cannot believe that Red Bull won't implode between now and Abu Dhabi.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Lewis.

Jenson simply doesn't have the dry weather pace to beat Lewis whilst Red Bull will implode soon as they keep taking points from each other. If neither of the Macca guys do it, I hope Webber.

I can honestly say I will be happy if any of those five win it. That said, I went for Lewis.

I reckon it'll be Hamilton. Red Bull may have the quicker car, but they dont have the harmony within the team. I can see Vettel and Webber taking too many points off each other

Mark Webber or Button, as Vettel and Hamilton with better raw pace will make more mistakes and lose points. I'm hoping it's Webber, that guy deserves it simply to show Red Bull and the world what he's got.

I have a sneaking suspicion it'll be Lewis by a very few points.

He is the most talented driver of the five, and if the faster Red Bulls keep taking it in turns to drop the ball, then I can see them both losing out when they tot up the scores come season's end.

However, apart from Alonso, I don't really mind if any of the others win it instead, although I don't really consider Webber to be of true WDC calibre tbh.

I think it will be Hamilton, I fear the Red Bulls will take too much points of each other with silly incidents like the last few rounds.

I would much prefer one of the Red Bull guys to win it though.

Nah, Alonso and Sebass have more talent. Hamilton might win though as it seems he's the 1st driver of Mclaren and Red Bull's drivers are always screwing up once in a while.

Vettel isn't as good as Hamilton. I agree with you that Alonso probably is, but not on 2010 form.

Well, actually, when it comes to Alonso, Hamilton, Vettel and Kubica it gets almost impossible to say definitely who is the best, it's too close. But I think everyone agrees that these drivers are better than all the others in the current grid(including this new version of Schumacher, the old might have been the best though, together with Senna)

From this specific season, so far is like this for me: Kubica, Hamilton, Rosberg, Barrichello, Webber-Button, Alonso-Vettel, Sutil, Kobayashi, Schumacher, Alguersuari...... and the rest I don't know
