Its time for the final round of the european season to kick off.
Monza, the home of the tifosi, Ferrari, and the fastest average speeds on the calender. A dry race barely lasts an hour, so little time to wonder about the usual press releases of the teams and their contract dealings.
My personal thought is that the title race could all but be decided this weekend. If Red Bull fail to pick up maximum points, the drivers title is all but gone, regardless of what happens to Button.
Can Mclaren continue their strong form, Can Ferrari give the home fans something to cheer for, and can Fisichella live up to the pressure of driving a red car in his home grand prix.  Both teams have drivers, who on paper are still in with a shot at the title, a couple more throw away weekends from the top guys, and maybe just maybe Kimi or Lewis could really give the gives up front some worrys going into Abu Dhabi.
Predicitions in by start of qualy as always chaps.

looking at the pictures from this weekend, we are finally back to the old "tea tray" style wings. The last few years the main teams especially have been using low downforce but sculpted wings. Now they are back to the virtually flat, and easily broken wings. Looks so much better.

I'd go with your first three choices Matt. If the Renault thing really kicks off then those three could well be racing come Sunday.

I think I should get 30 bonus points for being the first person to get anything 100% correct this season. Smiley Smiley Smiley

If Sutil can keep Kimi behind him for the first lap or so you may well be the first perfect score of the season!
Doubtful, but only because of KERS.

post quali weights make this a race between Kovi, Kimi and barrichello and Button.
Both Sutil and Lewis are very light in comparison. I'd say even Kimi is a little light.
