HAM wins by quite a margin.mbchc wrote:The Mercedes world domination derpy club?
This is rather unlikelyPlatinumZealot wrote:Rosberg will choke and retire from sliding off into the barriers.
There is a statistical chance of a Merc cruising at the front in the last three years of at least 80%. So this will be the case in 40% of the races. If you bet money on it, you will not earn much.PlatinumZealot wrote:Hamilton controls the race from the front for an easy win.
I have a feeling that Rosberg will win this race. Hamilton will win his 50th win in Brazil but by then Rosberg will be world champion.PlatinumZealot wrote:Rosberg will choke and retire from sliding off into the barriers. Hamilton controls the race from the front for an easy win.
I expect a 2014´s style fight. Rosberg making the pole and then Lewis being faster in the race. As I have already said, Nico has enough being second, if there is a battle he should not act like a crazy boy.basti313 wrote: The corers after the straights favor Lewis, he is better on breaking into them. So if everything runs normal he will win.
Like let win the race to the driver who is ahead after the first corner?Roman wrote:^However, Nico can act like a crazy boy. A DNF for both of them hurts Lewis much more than it does Nico.
But I firmly believe, Merc will do everything in their power to keep the two seperated as far as possible.
It is always very bad. But I cant see this happening because Nico doesnt needs it.Unless it has a failure and the difference is enough short to loose the WC if he ends second.Manoah2u wrote:one could argue however that with the WCC in the pocket, Merc might let them at it more, even though crashing into eachother still is bad publicity.
Crashing is always dangerous for Nico. When they touch, the risk is at nearly 50% that one car goes on and the other one is in real trouble, at least loosing more than 5 positions. So there is a 50% risk for Nico of loosing a lot of points. On the other hand he has a 100% chance of winning the WC by just driving right behind Lewis.Vasconia wrote:It is always very bad.

This is exactly what I think . I can only see this happening in the last race if the situation is desperate. And I doubt it would happen but under certain circustances...basti313 wrote:Crashing is always dangerous for Nico.

So the stupidst thing Nico can do is touch Lewis.
