I'm going all the way with Vettel. He is head and shoulders above the crowd right now. But of course it's racing, so anything can happen.

I actually voted for Hamilton, too. He was very impressive in Australia.

I am still on the Fernando bandwagon. I have been since 2004, so no reason to change now!

+1 While I'm 100% for Vettel, Hamilton seems to have pretty good pace. If you're a betting man, Hamilton is like 8/1 right now and I think he has a better shot than that.

I bet Fernando liked finishing behind the Russian again. All claims of being slowed down during the season finale are out!

I've been rooting for Vettel ever since I saw him live at the 2009 Shanghai GP. He killed it in completely soaking conditions.

Vettel. I remember when he scored his first points in a mediocre car and thought that it was special, not unlike Schumacher's first F1 race in a Jordan. You knew Vettel would be a champion one day and it appears as bad as he looked at times last year, he seems to have matured a great deal.

Now he's scored wins in the last 4 of 5 races and of course he can't win them all, but he looks pretty unstoppable at this point baring an accident at the race start or mechanical failure which is always possible in the conditions in Malaysia.

IIRC, the race start is later in the day to accomidate European viewing. The only problem is that it ALWAYS rains in the late afternoon hours there and with potential sheets of water coming down.

Default Just drive.....

It's things like this that make Hamilton hard to like. If he would just STFU and drive and let his results speak for themselves (because they are good), it would be easier to stomach his stupid comments

BTW, this isn't the first time he's compared himself to Senna, he has been doing it since his rookie year... among other things.

Even though I do not like the spoiled little brat, I'd have to vote for Vettel. He really has no competition right now.
