I think Kimi will eventually win... Alonso will be pushing SO HARD thaat I think he will take himself out of the race. Hamilton will drop to 2nd and maybe 3rd.
It smells of the German tabloid Bild......right up there with the National Inquirer. If this story makes SpeedTV.com or Formula1.com (or the BBC for that matter), then its got some cred. Otherwise, just ignore it - pure hype to drum up some coverage for this weekends' race at the Fuji circuit in Japan.

Well I just finished watching the Friday afternoon practice at the Fuji circuit. I know that this day is usually a 'testing/sorting' day for most teams....especially considering that no current F1 driver has raced at this track. So its difficult to say who may be really on the pace since some teams may not want to show their cards until Saturdays' qualifying. With that being said, if anything can be taken from today, McLaren look strong. Ferrari has good pace but seem to be battling some grip issues is the slower, tighter turns. Biggest surprise - Trulli setting 4th fastest lap of the afternoon (splitting the red cars). BMW seems to be off pace too....but then again they may be saving it for quali tomorrow.
So its shaping up to be an interesting weekend. New track for everyone so that levels things a bit. There's only two other support races at Fuji this weekend so not a lot of rubber is getting put down on the track. Another factor to consider - and this could make things very interesting: according to weather.com, 40% chance of rain on Saturday and 60% chance for rain on Sunday.

Mclaren is fast, Massa was struggling to keep up with them with several mistakes in the same corner. Im pretty sure this season will be over for Kimi with this next races [ie mclaren 1-2]

The race is about start......and its wetter than a cheap Vegas whore in Fuji. Safety car start due to so much rain. The last time that happened was Belgium in 2000. All drivers are mandated to running full wet tires at the start.
This is going to be one helluva race. See you post checker ;-)

Hamilton is amazing. Raikkonen (sp) still alive for the championship. I loved speeds coverage of the Massa pit stop to allow Raikkonen to move into 3rd. Massa's final lap was crazy.
