Who will be the 2012 Champion

by **Hexagram** » Thu Nov 22, 2012 11:15 pm

So here we are, the show down we've all been waiting for. Bernie didn't need to install sprinklers it's going to be a wet race! So who do you think will do it?

Alonso will win the title if...
* He wins the race and Vettel is fifth or lower
* He finishes second and Vettel is eighth or lower
* He finishes third and Vettel is 10th or lower

Vettel will win the title if...
* He finishes in the top four
* He finishes fifth, sixth or seventh and Alonso is second or lower
* He finishes eighth or ninth and Alonso is third or lower
* He finishes 10th or lower and Alonso fails to make it onto the podium

That's the question of the year.

Only 2 things i'm certain:
1. Whoever wins it, did a great job. Respect.
2. Alonso will come out fighting.

I know I will enjoy the race. It was a great season. The best is a looong time. Would have been better with a bit more Mclaren reliability.... but that's how it goes. And Kimi won a race! Great season.

Seeing as McLaren is out of the title hunt, I'm just hoping for a close race. Whoever comes out on top will deserve it, but given the pace of the Red Bull over the Ferrari, I think Seb will take title number three.

I think vettel will most likely take the title, but I still am rooting for Alonso. Even though I don't particularly care for him.

Hi mate, welcome to the forum! 8-)

It's looking even stronger for Seb, after qualifying!

Yeah, he was very good.
3 time champ... in a row... that's a big accolade. Someone has to stop him

I hope no one can!

He'll have to be top dog at Ferrari in 2014 if Alonso doesn't get his finger out. :lol:

I'm sure if you were to follow many other drivers onboards in that race you'd find far worse examples. I'm sure in this instance stewards would let it go as it was entering green and caused no danger to any marshals.

Put it this way, Ferrari have said that there was no foul so that should be good enough for anyone given that they had the most to loose by Vettel gaining more in the race.
