This is the end, my friends. Abu Dhabi is upon us and, when the checkered flag falls, we will have a new World Drivers champion and a long winter ahead of us. Here at F1B, J.P. has already claimed the Staff Championship with an absolutely crushing second half of the season. But the battle for second is more than close, with seven staffers in contention for the runner up spot and six of those within ten clicks of one another.
Championship leader Lewis Hamilton gets six picks for the win, while teammate and title contender Nico Rosberg is close with four picks of his own. Paul is going out on a limb in taking Bottas to pick up his first GP win. New boy Stevens gets two picks for First Out, while Maldonado and Kobayashi get three nods each. Alonso and Massa get one pick each, while Tony is picking Maldonado to help Hamilton become the first to leave the race.
