Button,
Little boy has no pressure so now he should be able to drive without his hands shaking.
The track layout looks actually pretty good, at least on paper, and AT LEAST coming from Tilke, hopefully it proves to be that way so we can have an entertaining last race.

Its the last race so the strategy, at least in my team owners eyes, is WFO all the way.
The Ferrari/McLaren fight for 3rd could be the race within the race..............KR is my choice.

I'm taking Kimi because the track is new and an experienced driver will have an advantage. Also, he's still negotiating contracts for next year.
Is it certain Glock will be driving this wknd? They otta keep the replacement.

Panasonic Toyota Racing will decide on Tuesday if Timo Glock will return to the cockpit for the upcoming Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. The German suffered a fractured vertebra from his accident during the Japanese GP qualifying session and was forced to sit out the Brazilian GP.
If Glock is not fit to race during the final event of the season, he will be replaced by Kamui Kobayashi, just like in Brazil.

Colin just recently moved to Arizona and when asked what about his driving/racing, Doug said he thought Colin was done with that. He instructs/coaches every now and then, but it looks like the dream is gone...

As absurd as it might sound, the future of Toyota's F1 program for 2010 might be in the hands of a young Japanese driver that has exactly 1 race under his belt. Highly impressive in Brazil. If he makes it 2 in a row, public pressure in Japan will make it unlikely that Toyota will pull out of F1.
Kobayashi to replace Glock again
27 October 2009
Toyota have confirmed that Timo Glock will miss his third consecutive race in Abu Dhabi as the German continues to recover from his Japanese qualifying crash. Test driver Kamui Kobayashi will therefore fill the vacancy once again, having made his Formula One debut in Brazil last time out.
With Glock crashing at Suzuka's final corner less than a week after finishing second in Singapore, Toyota was forced to run with the sole car of Jarno Trulli in Japan before Kobayashi stepped in and narrowly missed out on World Championship points on his first F1 outing in São Paulo.
A disadvantaged Timo watched the Japanese Grand Prix from the garage
With Glock - who is suffering from a cracked vertebra - unable to drive again and no contract yet signed for 2010, the German may have already driven his last race for Toyota.
"We feel genuinely sorry for Timo that his season, which has included two impressive podium finishes, is ending in this way," commented Toyota team President John Howett, "but we have been given differing medical advice on the status of his back problem and we are not willing to run the risk of a further accident inflicting more serious injuries.
"Kamui performed well in difficult circumstances in Brazil so we are happy to ask him to deputise once again."

For me the season is over and the best man didn't win. Hopefully Jean Todt will straighten out the mess that Max made. Now if only someone would take over for Bernie.
