Title winner for 2008 edition of Formula 1


The penultimate race , 2008 FORMULA 1 SINOPEC CHINESE GRAND PRIX will begin on this Sunday (19th Oct).And every F1 fans will keen to watch this race as McLaren's Lewis Hamilton can clinch the title on his second appearance after debut last year.He almost made history last year by being the first ever rookie driver to win the title, but he failed to do so.Will he be able to keep that away from his mind and do it on this Sunday.

With the current standings only 3 drivers have the chance to fight for the title, namely

1. Lewis Hamilton - 84 points -Team McLaren
2. Felipe Massa - 79 points -Team Ferrari
3. Robert Kubica - 72 points -Team BMW Sauber

Sadly for me, after my favourite Ferrari's driver Michael Schumacher, Kimi Raikkonen is out of the championship contenders with 63 points so far.

There are so many permutations for the title contender and all above mentioned drivers have a chance to become the champion.
But there is very little window of oppertunity for Robert Kubica to become the champion given the condition of the car (BMW Sauber) he has.

Lewis can do it on this sunday if he keeps his cool head.But should not by any means be under estimate the red Scarlet of Felipe.He will do every bit to become the champion.

It is interesting to read into the comments made by Renaults's Fernando Alonso who has a rivalry between Lewis Hamilton who was the teams mate last year in McLarens.

During this week end it is interesting to watch the start of the race and the turn 1 of the cercuit.We might see the safty car deployed very early stage of the race.

I am really looking forward to watch this race on this Sunday on Star Sports.

I would love to see Lewis pull it off this time even though I am a Ferrari fan.
