Brazilian GP Thread (SPOILERS)
Well folks, the time has come. Lewis once again leads by 7 points into this weekend's final round and this time it's the other Ferrari driver chasing the title. There is some wetness about and that plays into Hamilton's advantage. Massa isn't the best wet driver on the planet.
Discuss.

I see Hambone taken out in the first corner by Kimi and massa finishes second behind Alonso to win the championship. Wouldn't that raise some controversy?
Controvery sells tickets and air time. Yes, it's wishful thinking. |

Hamilton will be punted. The only hope for "fairness" is that Massa will be as well. I wish that Kubica was within 10 points of both of them...

well, he did say he'd help Massa
 He was driving a terrible line before the punt though. Jim, good to see you're back safe from the trip up to Ohio to buy Tim's Audi

Freddie takes first practice, Massa tops the second. Conspiracies abound!
Any bets on what Ron Dennis will beat up if Lewis doesn't win? His pitwall LCD monitors?

I suspect Legion is typing his latest McLaren conspiracy theory about the race as we speak.

Opps, I miss-read the title. I thought it was a follow on from the butts and boobs thread.

LH FTW...
Unless Fred T-Bones LH, then its MASSA FTW  I find it amazing the tech talk late in the season, last race they talk about the clutches in STR cars. This race/practice they talk about the valve train. I always wondered how a 19k/RPM valve train could sustain that. Never knew it was spring-less and compressed air closed the valves! This race gentleman is greater than the super bowl IMHO Helmet CAM is great!

I hope it rains and Massa spins right in front of the grandstand. Then Lewis passes him to win the championship.
I'm a big Ferrari/Schumacher fan, but I just don't like Massa. It's not the same Ferrari anymore.

Who ever wins, it has been a great season. The best I can remember. May the best looking man win!
As things go with colored folks these days, I expect both the F1 champion and the White House champion will be nicely tanned..

Lewis is swimming with sharks!
Kimi on the side and Alonso right behind him, I hope he just takes it easy on turn 1. 5’th or better is all he needs tomorrow.

The McLaren boss has made a secret sound tape for Lewis with a more or less subliminal message that he will hear threw earphones during the night, over and over: For God Sake, Lewis - Play It Safe! You Do Not Have To Win This Race!!
Probably won´t do any good though..

SPOILERS!!!!
SPOILERS!!!! SPOILERS!!!! After qualifying watching, I'm betting that Ferrari went with a dry setup (less wing) while McLaren went with a wet setup (more wing). We'll see whose bet pays off.
