Formula-One Final Countdown

It's a final countdown!

This weekend we will be watching yet another grand finale for World Formula 1 season. Like last year, McLaren Mercedes's Lewis Hamilton is leading a Ferrari's driver, this time round Filipe Massa. Like last year as well, Lewis Hamilton is leading by 7 points.

Last year Lewis threw it away all by himself during the last 2 races, and I think this year history will be repeating itself. No matter how reliable the Mercedes' engine is, no matter how skillful Lewis is, I think pressure will still mount onto Lewis's mind during the race, and he will again somehow or rather throw the race away by himself.

As shown several times this year, Lewis will perform extraordinary under intense pressure, and I don't see any different during this Sunday's race. It's the final race of the season, and by maintaining in the top 5 would be sufficient to secure the world title, but still Lewis is too young and hot headed to remain calm under those intense pressure.

So I pressume, and predicted Filipe Massa to excel over his rival during the final race of the season, and also in front of his home crowds. But there will be plenty of dramas during the race, and we are anticipating helps from various drivers towards Filipe Massa because of the arrogant shown by Lewis Hamilton along the season on and off track.
