The forecast gets a bit irrelevant before the final race though, as the race result has no chance to resemble the average of the previous 18 races. We know for sure that 24 drivers won't score points!
Who will win it?
KWSN - DSM has a respectable lead and is likely to take the title. The ones with an outside chance to surprise are weasle and magicalonso. The result in China that weasle needs to dream about is that both Button and Massa do well, both finishing in the top five. What magicalonso needs is excellent results from Fisichella (preferrably a win), Button and Massa. meanwhile, KWSN - DSM will be happy to have David Coulthard scoring points or just a regular finish that maintains the status quo, with Alonso, Kimi, Montoya and the Ferraris doing well.
