Believe it or not, I actually think that the WDC battle is between Rosberg and Hamilton.

LOL was the OP looking to wind guys up?I mean,Benedict Cumberbatch has been on the podium more times than Vettel!He has no hopes,not with his luck,not with his driving and I daresay the psychology to win.

As someone clarified earlier in the thread... apparently a fortnight ago he was on his last engine(That bad... so no wonder RBR are pissed at Renault). This year is going to suck for him, and seemingly for no fault of his own.

Hamilton did as expected and blew an opportunity to collect points - An Alonso or a Vettel would have walked away from this race with a few valuable championship points - however Hamilton blew it by following to close, using extreme brake bias and cooking his brakes. There will be those who will see no fault with him and instead blame bad luck and the car so be it .. For Hamilton fans, the good news is that now that some pressure is off him for the WDC race and he is behind in points he will probably finish well in the next 2 races or then maybe not ...

I would say the exact opposite. The pressure is on him. He has to score more points to win the WDC. But in my opinion all the talk about missing mental strength is bullshit. Hamilton has won the WDC in a car that was far less dominant than the W05. That Hamilton is lacking mental strength is a long lasting prejudice. He has matured and has a very good car with a very good team. The Merc is the only car fighting for WDC and WCC
