Super cool. Like Alonzo and Ferrari has always been my favorite team.

But Red Bulls and Vettel look unstoppable late in the season. RB is the best team in f1 with the best designer in Adrian Newey.

I think it's nice. However you downplayed the hideous looking ridge on the nose of the Ferrari. There is a reason why it's the ugliest car on the grid this year, artistic license aside ;-)

...but, it's so about function over form. The engineers don't care about the looks, as long as the car gets around the track faster than the rest. I personally think that the Red Bull cars have a similarly hideous hump on the nose.

It's nearly universal that Ferrari has the ugliest car this year. Take the famed red paint away and it would be gruesome.

WHAT A RACE THOUGH! I really want Alonso to win this year, he's by far the best driver this year, not having the best car. He's bringing it home on the podium where the car's sheer pace is only 5/6th place on the grid. Red Bull car is just too fast now at the end of the season... it's gonna be a hell of an amazing 3 races left!

Vettel will win the championship. Red Bull is peaking at the right time and look too strong.

Agree that Alonso has done very well given his ugly looking car hasn't always had the pace of McLaren or Red Bull. Kimi has also done very well given his equipment. Would like to see Kimi win a race before the season is over, but doubt it will happen. The Vettel/Red Bull combo seems to have regained the form they had from the previous two seasons.

Kimi is the best driver this year because he doesn't have a top car. I can never root for Ferrari. I'll always back Macca and then anyone else over them.

+1... Also, the cry baby Hamilton has lost all respect. The most talented driver in F1 that has ruined his driving career by acting like a spoiled teenager and now with Mercedes not gonna win anything next couple of years.
