331: How can the F1 title be won tomorrow?

Nico Rosberg goes into tomorrow’s final Formula One race in Abu Dhabi 12 points ahead of Lewis Hamilton.

If Hamilton wins at the Yas Marina Circuit, Rosberg must finish third or better.

If Hamilton crosses the line in second place, Rosberg needs to be sixth or better.

If the German finishes seventh, they would be tied on points, but Hamilton would clinch the title having scored more third places. They have both won nine times this year, and would have also scored four second places each.

If Hamilton finishes third, then eighth place or better for Rosberg will be enough to win the title.

If Hamilton is fourth on Sunday, Rosberg will require just one point (10th) to be crowned champion. If Rosberg fails to score they would be tied on points, but in this scenario he would win the title having finished second four times compared to Hamilton’s three.

Should Hamilton cross the line only in fifth, Rosberg will win the title regardless of where he finishes.

Hamilton has been on top all weekend so far, having secured pole with Rosberg three tenths behind.

Bring it on.
