    Verstappen for the win, provided Renault PU holds up.

    I agree. He's in rare form at the moment, and it's been shown that Hamherstcollege gives up once he's got the championship in the bag (see: 2015).

    If it rains, Verstappen is gonna have a hard time outshining Hamilton though. It should be a good race between the 2 again. Looks like strong rain chance Friday and Saturday.

    Almost no rain forecast for Sunday so far

    Agreed. The thug and the laggard are useless in the rain. Should be a straight fight between Mad Max and HAM.

    Anyway, Vettel is more than decent in the rain. Alonso is also pretty damn good there too

    Ahhh...Interlagos. If only Timo Glock could’ve defended that last turn to start/finish line, Massa would have been champion, and perhaps we’d have a less whiney Hamilton.

    Absolutely. I still love watching Massa’s family’s reaction.

    Ironically losing the title also relieved Massa of the dubious distinction of least deserving WDC, which Button assumed the following season.

    Liberty Media's ears must have been ringing.

    Here's the onboard from Glock Final Lap at that race

    Even such evidence is not good enough for the haters. He was getting passed left and right by wet tyre runners, but somehow, "Timothy could’ve defended that last turn to start/finish line"..LMAO, if pigs could fly

    Why does NBCSN suck so much? They really aren’t showing qualifying in favor of NASCAR & CNBC is showing infomercials. They are the worst. I can’t wait to see how ESPN mucks this up next year...

    I'm watching on the NBCSN app. Chromecasting to my TV.

    Hamilton out. Sounds out inQ1 before setting a time. He'll be by the Toro Rossos and Ricciardo at the back of the grid

    NBCSN app on my tv. They show all practices live, too.

    Shameful display by the Tax Dodger Hamilton, not very champion-like. He’ll probably blame Brazil poverty and crime.

    I really hope we don’t have to suffer through another tearful Massa send off. Williams will do well to leave him in Brazil.

    Yeah - that's what I'm doing too, but it's not conducive to switching between College Gameday, or at least adds another step. Tablet to Apple Play.

    Well done Bottas. Mistake by HAM, but doesnt matter since WDC is secured. Should be fun watching him and RIC come through the pack.

    Bottas suddenly quick with The Tax Evading Hamster taking himself out and no one else to blame, Merc allowed Bottas to use the qualifying engine mode reserved for champ.

    The Legend decided that he has already defeated the laws of the physics. Even though Sir Newton is his homeboy, Ham did not get any free pass on the said laws. He almost defeated them, but as we all know it doesnt happen without FIA intervention

    Nice drive by both HAM and RIC to make it through the field.
    Bottas had nothing for Vettel. He never put a wheel wrong

    Great comeback by the Legend. RIC did well too. BOT almost had the Thug on the undercut, too bad.
