The real question here is will the turbo blow up?
Hamilton is an extremely aggressive driver, they all are I guess, but even when he was driving the V8's he was aggressive.
Turbos place so much strain on these smaller engines and cooling is a big factor.
Rain is another factor, could lead to a couple of safety cars.
I'd take the value on Nico.
I actually think that $1.20 is under the odds for Hamilton to win the WDC.
He'll probably win, but there's no value there.

As for love lost, Hamilton doesn't have a good relationship with Nico, but last year both Alonso and Webber, did not have a good relationship with Vettel.
I remember Alonso would not talk to Vettel at all.

The reason I think $1.20 is too short, is because there are too many variables.
Another driver could win either race and all Nico has to do is beat Hamilton in the placings.

There are some big changes coming next year team wise, should be very interesting. And this year has been a learning curve for the other teams.
I know Ferrari have been working a lot behind the scenes to change the whole setup for next year.

Rumours are flying around about Alonso starting his own team backed by a big gun. Alonso has nether confirmed nor denied this. We know what this means in the political arena

Playlife, a big congratulations on securing those early odds, that was a gutsy move and looks like a huge overlay now!
$2.00 was way too short on Vettel considering the move from v8's to v6 turbos. Everything changes.
