    One race left to go, and Bottas leads Raikkonen by only 1 point, so this race will decide 4th place. They've had a few clashes in the last three races, so I'd expect more of the same coming up!

    Let's go Kimi!

    Bottas' problem is that I think that the Abu Dhabi track will suit Ferrari much more than Williams; in fact I think that this is a track where Ferrari will actually worry Mercedes.

    Dunno, the sliperyness of the Williams does help them.

    Certainly in the beginning of the race, however, it suits Ferrari again due to high track temps....Bahrain was a great race for them and Kimi in particular, a track quite similar in characteristics to Abu Dhabi.

    My guess is that Kimi doesn't care if he ends up 4th or 5th. Ferrari may pay attention to this, but Kimi does not.
    Remember in 2012 when he said that he would rather be 4th in the championship that 3rd, because when you are fourth you are not required to attend the prize ceremony?

    Well, he's in luck because the top 3 spots are already taken, so no ceremony for him :D.
