It pains me to say it but Alonso.
I do think Hamilton will come in a close 2nd though, possibly win if the Ferrari's have some reliability issues but they looked very strong today.
Alonso has to be the favorite but I think Hamilton will go for the consistency approach and be well placed if there are issues with Red Bull and Ferrari at any point, or if 2009 style performance gains are achieved.I do think Hamilton will come in a close 2nd though, possibly win if the Ferrari's have some reliability issues but they looked very strong today.
I think the WDC is a close call between Alonso and Vettel. Webber was disappointing, and while Massa was impressive this race, his ultimate performance remains to be seen. Hamilton did great too, but his car has around 3mph advantage on straights, so I expected him to do better. Button got his backside handed to him by Hamilton.
So, definitely between Alonso or Vettel for the WDC, with advantage to Alonso due to his car's superior long-run performance and his veteran status. The final step on the podium would be between Hamilton and Massa: 50% each way.

Going on what you think, you have named the first four home in Sunday's race ... I've had a WDC bet on Alonso before today's race, but having seen how Vettel and his car qualified and raced, I shall be having another bet and not just as a saver eitherif the odds are attractive later.... I was very impressed by Vettle today both before and during his mechanical problems with the car.So, definitely between Alonso or Vettel for the WDC, with advantage to Alonso due to his car's superior long-run performance and his veteran status.

I also bet on a win for Alonso in the race as his odds became more attractive when he qualified only 3rd. Both he and me were lucky boys to win today... Win some, lose ...
However, as always, it's the car first... then the driver.

I think vettel, he was the moral victor
I voted Vettel too but moral victor? Nearly winning races won't take the championship
The pace shown by Vettel and Redbull was pretty devastating. I'm confident they will sort the exhaust teething problem by next race. If the Renault engine is as gentle on fuel as they say that will be a real trump card through the whole season.
