    I like that one. :D I particularly like fun things like this that make most people think "huh?" and then hope no one noticed the blank, confused look on their face while they were staring, trying to figure it out.

    That's interesting - I had to look up 'clag' to find its Speed TV use for describing 'marbles'. In the North of England, clag is what sticks to the bottom of your boots when you are walking in mud - though I guess that's the same thing.

    I'm rooting for Rosberg. But I'm resigned to Hammy taking it.

    At least this one is legit.

    I can't believe the last race of the season is this weekend. On one hand I'm excited for the culmination of an interesting F1 season. On the other, it'll be a long winter until the car reveals next year (and MLB spring training).

    I'm hoping Lewis takes the WDC on Sunday.

    PS: any predictions on where Alonso lands?

    I'm rooting for Lewis, but am not sure that he will be content to play it safe and stay one spot behind Nico. With that said, I would be totally fine with Nico winning if Lewis does something stupid. Really all that is important is that it is not Sebooostian in contention for the title.

    For my money Lewis wants a win, not a second. I hope he doesn't do something stupid. By this time he should have the maturity to hand the pressure. :fingerscrossed:

    Do the double points count for the Constructor standings as well?

    Pretty sure the folks in Abu Dhabi already pay extra to host the last race of the season. Wouldn't be surprised if they cheered when Bernie suggested it should also be worth double points.

    Advertising alcohol is banned in Dubai. No champagne on the podium either.
