Fight for Championship - 2008

Lewis Hamilton is a serious contender for clinching the Championship this time, but he will be given a tough fight by last year Champion Kimi Räikkönen. Fernando Alonso, one of the best drivers on the circuit, with a formidable fighting spirit will try his best to claim a second Championship for Renault, though a lot will depend on the how his car behaves. Brazilian Felipe Massa, the second driver for Ferrari, though not seen as a contender for Championship should be giving tough time to all the three drivers mentioned above. One will surely see him picking up crucial points for Ferrari. The final result will depend mostly on how Ferrari behaves on the circuit. Though Kimi clinched the Championship for Ferrari last year, the car’s performance has been erratic. I don’t see Hamilton making a lot of mistakes on the circuit, so every point gained by Ferrari will turn out to be crucial in deciding their fate.
