I can't believe the crap I'm reading on the F1 forums/websites I frequent. Almost everyone seems to be of the opinion that Red Bull should: a) promote Vettel to the status of "number 1 driver" and back him to win b) let their two drivers race it out Either option would be stupid and it would be practically giving the driver's title to Alonso.

But my much earlier, broader guess that it'd come down to the Red Bulls and Fernando Alonso seems to be spot-on. Mark Webber's not very far ahead of Vettel and Alonso so the final three races will come down to whether he has the nous to continue defending his ...
