Just supposing you had to bet everything you have.....where would you put your money this weekend coming?
This is not a question for the heart....it's one for the head.

Red Bull Dietrich is making noises about preferring to not win the driver's title than to employ team orders (wonder if he'd be saying that if it was Vettel who might need Webber to move over?)
so Webber might not be the safe bet.
Alonso must be concerned at whether he can challenge the Red Bulls now. They are so far ahead in terms of pace.
Vettel is arguably the better driver in the best car, with the team support.....

So, where's your money going?

Something tells me Webber's going to have a sticky wheel nut...

Or the same people that 'spoil' their vote at an election.

Agreed. I think Red Bull will somehow drop the ball spectacularly at the weekend.
Yeah, same here, but I voted Webber.

Me too. You could guarantee that if the positions were reversed Red Bull would not be adopting the attitude they have for the last race.

I think the Red Bull's will both bugger off at the front, Alonso running behind and Vettel will let Webber through to take the title

I would have to agree. Alonso must be a little concerned about the engine situation and the 2 Redbulls might crack under the pressure. Lewis won't give up and can just go for it now!

Webber.

Alonso will stick it in the wall trying to hang onto the back of the red bulls...

Not. A. Chance.

Its more likely that Webber would DNF if it meant Vettel could win.

Everything I had would be on Alonso. But I do think that Vettel will hand it to Webber if it was impossible for himself to win it.

ETA: I actually think Vettel would be willing to get on with Webber. It's Webber that has the chip on his shoulder about the whole thing. I like him, but over the past 2 weeks he's been somewhat childish airing the dirty undies in public.

Well I have supported Mark since Minardi days so I have to say Mark. I think the way it will come about is Red Bulls faster than Alonso with Vettel in front who will move over if he has no chance to win the crown. I would rather Mark got a rocket up him and took pole and the lead into the first corner.

As much as I am not a fan, Hamilton looks fairly good punt at 100-1 if that's the odds on offer.

I bet on Alonso in January as a speculative punt. I see no reason to change my mind now.
