"It's a pretty intense weekend," says Nico Rosberg. "I'm not sure how well I'll sleep but I'm sure I'll get the hours that I need. It's still a race I want to win. I have to go for that to have a chance [of winning the title]. It's going to be exciting and I'm sure it will be a good battle with Lewis as always. Anything can happen in racing."

"Qualifying is an area that I will definitely try and improve next year," says Lewis Hamilton. "With it being the last race we're all feeling pressure but I don't think there was any impact on today."

It's a big day tomorrow, which means a big live text commentary. We'll be live from 10:00 GMT, bring you all the news and photos from the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix paddock as well as building up to one of the biggest races in living memory.

BBC Radio 5 live are up and running at 12:00, with BBC One joining the party at 12:10. Then it is onwards to the start of the race at 13:00. Bring. It. On.

As Eddie Jordan mentioned earlier, the Williams could well play a part in tomorrow's race, such was their impressive speed. Valtteri Bottas was just two tenths slower than Lewis Hamilton, with his team-mate Felipe Massa a tenth further back.

So the stage is set for the final act. Nico Rosberg starts on pole with his title rival and team-mate Lewis Hamilton alongside him. If it stays like this tomorrow, Hamilton will be crowned 2014 Formula 1 world champion. But it's a big if.

"Lewis (pictured) will not sleep well tonight, he will think about it," says Mercedes non-executive chairman Niki Lauda. "But tomorrow is the race. Tomorrow, they both come in neutral. It's going to be a two- or three-stop race and anything can happen."

Bob Horton on Facebook:, external "Lewis will win the championship: it will be a Mercedes 1-2 as it has been pretty much all season and so regardless of where he is in that setup Lewis wins the title. Only way he'll lose it is if (touch wood) his car packs up."

"That was a super exciting qualifying session and once again Nico delivers under pressure. Lewis has been following the same format all season, goes out after Nico and drops the ball - maybe he is just trying to build the tension."

"I've been to two races before and it's an honour to be back," says singer-songwriter Pharrell Williams, who is in town ahead of his performance at the event. "Obviously, we're just hoping for a good safe race. Lewis is a friend and I want to see him do it again. I've known him for between eight and 10 years. It's been awesome to follow his journey."

Former world champion Nigel Mansell:, external "Lewis and Nico need to remember world is watching, for me Lewis has points advantage, just do enough. They need to look after their cars.

"Super performance from both Williams drivers great second row lock out, they could have impact on championship, Merc just need good start."

"I generally didn't have the best of laps but I enjoyed the qualifying session," says Lewis Hamilton, who starts second. "Tomorrow is going to be a special day. "When asked about how he will approach the first corner, he says: "Same as every time."
