Blundell's view: Brazilian Grand Prix.

Tuesday, 17th October 2006

"It has been edge of your seat stuff in the latter half of the season in terms of Renault versus Ferrari - and this final battle in Brazil should be just as good..." - Mark Blundell.

At the end of the day though, the teams at the back haven’t made any really big strides into the next level this season and that is somewhat of a disappointment. Toro Rosso has probably been a little more disappointing than most in that respect, in that it had a known quantity in the car and engine package. I thought it would have made a little bit more out of it, but it has struggled slightly with its young drivers not quite getting the job done as and when needed.

So, to sum up, I reckon Michael Schumacher will take pole position and win this weekend, buoyed up to go out on a positive note. I also think Massa will give the local fans lots to cheer about by taking second, with Alonso completing the podium. Then I’d go for Raikkonen, Giancarlo Fisichella and Button.

Enjoy the race... and remember, for those of you in Europe, it is an evening ‘kick-off’. I’ll be there with ITV F1 to give you my thoughts as and when it happens on track.
