2010 Formula One World Championship

[Jim05]

Agreed i can see red bull being stubborn and next race finishing with same results which would leave vettel and webber tied in 2nd and leaving alonso champ by 5 pts.

What is Webber, Vettal and Alonso's record the venue of the final GP over the ast couple of years. Does the track suit RBulls?

Points

The top ten finishers in each Grand Prix score points towards both the drivers’ and the constructors’ world championships, according to the following scale:

1st : 25 points
2nd : 18 points
3rd : 15 points
4th : 12 points
5th : 10 points
6th : 8 points
7th : 6 points
8th : 4 points
9th : 2 points
10th : 1 point

(The only exception to this is when a race is suspended and cannot be restarted. If less than 75 per cent of the race distance has been completed half points are awarded, and if less than two laps have been completed, no points are awarded.)

For example, if in a given race Lewis Hamilton finishes second for McLaren and team mate Jenson Button fifth, then Hamilton and Button score 18 and ten points respectively towards the drivers’ championship, while McLaren score 28 points (18 plus 10) towards the constructors’ championship.

The drivers' and constructors' championship titles are awarded to the driver and constructor who score the most points over the course of the season. In the case of a dead heat for a championship place then the driver or constructor with the higher number of superior race results will be awarded the place.

Who wins on countback if vettel and webber tie for championship?

To finish level would have to be vettel/webber at next race and vettel wins countback

Who wins on countback if vettel and webber tie for championship?

To finish level would have to be vettel/webber at next race and vettel wins countback

How come they have won the same amount of races??

[Jim05]

To finish a tie vettel must win and webber come 2nd. That win would put vettel one ahead.
Still would have alonso favourite, he doesnt have to win. A 2nd or 3rd should be enough

Alonso - 246 points: 5 wins, 2 2nds, 3 3rds

Webber - 238 points: 4 wins, 4 2nds, 2 3rds

Vettel - 231 points: 4 wins, 2 2nds, 3 3rds

Hamilton - 222 points: 3 wins, 4 2nds, 1 3rd

If Webber loses this title, he will never want to return to Korea. Had he not crashed out, I'm certain he would be champion.

[Jim05]

Probably right there. But take out that "fixed" race earlier in the year where massa was ordered to pull over for alonso and i think the gap is only 1 point alonso's way

Vettel may be saying the same thing....

Most important qualifying of the year coming up

All I can say is ...GO MARK!!

[Thiele]

Go Mark he has a tough job though

[Pup]

Hopefully he avoids Massa off the Grid!

What a race coming up.

[bloods08]

A bit divided tonight.

As a ferrari fan I hope Alonso wins but also as an Australian I also hope Webber wins.

Gonna be a interesting night.

[purch]

I'm so nervous I'm going to be sick

[Interceptor]

Wow, crash on lap 1 and out with the safety car.

How awesome does that whole marina area look?

[purch]

[Jim05]
