McLaren should merly "forget" to connect Heikki's brake pedal to the brakes, then tell him to aim at the side of Massa (and hopefully Kimi if they are side by side) for a huge Christmas bonus. McLaren might not win the constructor's but it would be funny to watch...
Edit: 3 days of rain, McLaren 1-2 finish please! And Ferrari to screw it up as usual in the wet...

Fwiw, I don't know that those of us who want to see McLaren win the title should be hoping for a wet race.
Although a wet race would probably make for the greatest probability that Hamilton would win the race, of course he doesn't need to win the race. He only needs to finish 5th, which in a dry race would have a very high likelihood. In a wet race, however, there must be a greater risk that something funky could happen, and therefore there is probably a greater likelihood that Hamilton would finish outside the top 5. The distribution of likely outcomes in the wet is probably more of a barbell, and Hamilton actually would be better off with the centralised distribution that we would expect in the dry.
The one saving grace of a wet race might be that, independent of the likely outcome for Hamilton, it would reduce Massa's chances of the finish that he himself would need to win the title.

Yep, remember Schuey himself spinning into the barriers (along with a fair percentage of the field) on a temporary river that formed at Turn 2?I'll take dry and a dull race please!
