    Actually, I'd like both an exciting finish to the season and have the truly best driver win.

    As for what Merc want- I'm afraid their position is now out of the teams hands and entirely at the mercy of the individual drivers...

    I just hope that Dan doesn't loose his fun loving personality like Ambrose did in Nascar. It's a lot of pressure...

    Ambrose already had an "attitude" before he got to NASCAR ..... but isn't NASCAR like WWE ?

    I'm wondering if there will be announcements at Monza regarding Ferrari / Scuderia management. Twitter's blowing up with rumors. I just started another thread specifically addressing those rumors.

    He didn't do too well the last couple of years at Ferrari. Lots of mistakes by the team compared to previous years. Complacency?

    I'm reasonably confident with 3 of those.

    Nico, Felipe, Bottas.
    Hamilton to crash himself out and WDC battle is over and everyone will be sad for a boring-ish end of season...

    WWE? Now come on...That's a little bit of a stretch :)
    At least they don't penalize drivers for running into each other.

    Doesn't a F1 wing mirror cost more than one of those cars, or is more F1 steering wheel money.

    So you think maybe that's the reason they can touch each other without the sky falling?

    It could be considered a real good reason why F1 cars should avoid contact, I know absolutely nothing about Crapcar < not my nickname, or even why it's considered to be like WWE.

    Time to get real...More like it's the millions that is paid out to the teams for the WCC. Team owners could care less about the WDC...and treat the drivers as such. Trouble is the drivers want to win the WDC, so each of them have a different goal. Nascar is only about the drivers championship. As a result the cut throat mentality is more prevalent. Be that as it may, F1 is the best racing in the World...

    I think the team owners DO care about the WDC - after all, it is pretty hard to win the WCC without also winning the WDC.

    Whether they (Mercedes) cares if Nico or Ham wins it is another question, and one for the internal spies of team politics.
