Race to the finish-Suzuka

             Undoubtedly one of the most popular tracks in the history of Formula 1,Suzuka has always given us eventful races, and the upcoming race promises to be no different.The championship is still wide open with 5 contenders and with the new points system,it can go any way.

             Only 25 points separate the top 5 drivers but my prediction is that a Red Bull driver or Fernando Alonso will be the 2010 Champion.This is not mere instinct.The signs are there for all to see.Red Bull is still the car to beat out there.Ferrari have made a lot of progress but i doubt whether they would have won even one of the past 2 races had it not been for Fernando Alonso.Alonso is the best driver out there right now (with all due respect to Michael Schumacher) and the guys at Red Bull very much acknowledge this fact.Webber has been outstanding throughout the season but has also had a fair amount of luck as compared to his teammate.I still think Sebastian Vettel can win this championship but he cannot afford to make mistakes anymore.The McLarens are too slow as compared to the Ferraris and Red Bulls, and for them,the hopes of winning either the driver's or the constructor's championship are fading  with every race.

             Anyway,we are finally at Suzuka with 4 races to go in what has been an unpredictably close season.With clouds of doubt hovering above the Korean Grand Prix, Suzuka might decide the course of the championship.Being a highly technical track,Suzuka's predicted to be a Red Bull hunting ground.The Red Bulls have looked very strong in the Friday practice sessions but the high possibility of heavy rains on Saturday means that qualifying's going to be a lottery.Someone just tweeted from the track that it has started raining already.50 mm expected tomorrow.Whatever the case,its gonna be a cracking race.Lets hope we do get a qualifying session tomorrow.
