    "Lewis Hamilton v Nico Rosberg, chapter 18 of 19. As he has more often than not this season, Rosberg starts from pole position for the Brazilian Grand Prix, but the German has yet to beat Hamilton in a straight fight this season when they have started together on the front row, if you discount Monaco, where overtaking is virtually impossible. Is this the day he overturns what would be a rather embarrassing statistic, whether or not he wins the world title this year?"

  3. Many titles have been decided in Interlagos, but that won't be the case this year with the World Championship going down to the wire in Abu Dhabi thanks to Bernie Ecclestone's double points rule.

    Welcome to Brazil, the birthplace of the legendary Ayrton Senna and home to one of the world's most exciting race tracks. The Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace, Interlagos is a keeper, a circuit you simply couldn't replicate. And this year, it is host to the penultimate round of the Formula 1 World Championship.
