Brazilian GP Preview
It is the final race of the season and Sebastian Vettel is 2/7 (Ladbrokes) to win the drivers’ championship. A top-4 finish would guarantee him the title whatever Alonso does.
The permutations are varied but the simple fact remains - if Sebastian Vettel finishes in the top-4, he is guaranteed his third drivers’ championship.
However, Fernando Alonso isn’t finished yet. The forecast for Sunday is wet and that could work in his favour; the Spaniard is 4/1 (William Hill) for the title.
