Vettel  got his 4^th win in this year to lead a Red Bull one-two in the 1^st ever Abu

Dhabi Grand Prix.  Webbo shook off Jenson (Who finished 3^rd .) to finish in 2^nd .
 
Jenson was ahead of Rubins ( Who finished 4^th .). This meant that Seb finished

as championship runner-up. Nick H ended the season on a high by finishing in a

good 5^th. Kobayashi  scored his 1^st ever points  by finishing  in 6^th ahead of team

mate Jarno (Who finished in 7^th .)  Buemi rounds off the points scorers in 8^th.

Lewis flew to pole in the 1^st ever Abu Dhabi GP by 0.7

seconds to the two Red Bulls. Vettel will start in 2^nd behind

Lewis and will start ahead of Webbo who will start in

3^rd.Rubins ( Who will start in 4^th.) will start ahead of his

Brawn team mate Jenson (Who will start in 5^th.)   Jarno

have put his problems behind to start in a good 6^th.  

Kuba ( Who will start in 7^th.) will start ahead of his team

mate Nick H ( Who will start in 8^th .) in BMW’s last race in F1.

Nico and Buemi   who start in the top ten for the 1^st ever

time round off the top ten. None of the Ferraris got into
the top ten  which made this year the 1^st since 1993 that

Ferrari  not  got the  No 1 position. It was worse for Fred who went out at Q1 for the 1^st time ever and will start in

16^th.

Jenson finally get his 1^st WDC after he produced a great drive to get a 5^th

place to get the title as Webbo won his 2^nd race. Kuba drove an excellent race
 
to get 2^nd and Lewis took full advantage of the safety car which can out right

at the start of the race after an accident between Jarno and Sutil which also

took Fred out of the race. Vettel was another driver who took advantage to

get 4^th to get some pride back. Behind Jenson Kimi got 6tg place despite of


being sprayed with the fuel of Kova’s car when he and Kova were pitting

under the safety car. Buemi  drove to a good 7^th place and Rubins who had to
 
pit right at the end of the race recovered to get 8^th and score the final points

and hand the title to Jenson.

Rubins got his 1^st pole for 5 years as he took full advantage of his main his title rivals had disasters in an extremely long Brazilian Grand Prix qualifying session, which lasted nearly 3 hours in total thanks to stoppages and delays. 

Q1 was first red flagged after only 4 minutes when Fisi spun his car stalled on the racing line which left him at the back of the grid.

Q1 started again after a 12 minutes delay But Vettel and both the McLarens fell victim and went out.

The five minute break before Q2 then stretched to 20 minutes then the red flags were out yet again as Liuzzi crashed but was unharmed. Then there  was an delay of 1 hour 10 mins until the session was started again and with the track getting quicker there was a chance to get into inters which most drivers did but for some reason Jenson did not and paid the price and will start  in 14^th place.

Behind Rubins, Webbo will start in an excellent 2^nd place after he fought with Rubins to fight for the pole.  Sutil enjoyed the conditions and it got him an excellent 3^rd place. Jarno will start in a good 4^th place Kimi who turned 30 today will start in 5^th.  Buemi will start in a good 6^th . Nico will start in 7^th with his team mate Nakajima who will between Kuba( Who will start in 8^th place.) in 9^th place. Fred rounds of the top 10.

Due to the fact that Qually was so long I will not be able to give you the weights until Sunday.

when his 2^nd pit stop was messed but he had such a lead that he did not suffer as a

result. Jarno gave Toyota their 2^nd place in a week after he beat  Lewis who

finished in 3rd, Kimi got a good 4^th place after showing some pace in his Ferrari.

Lewis Hamilton won the Singapore Grand Prix which he was rarely troubled  from start to finished even when his KERS did not working for a short period during the early stages of the race. Timo and Fred drove excellent drives to get 2^nd and 3^rd place. Seb got 4^th place after he got a pit lane speeding penalty after his 2^nd pit stop which cost him any chance of getting on the podium. The Brawn team rescued their bad weekend even if both cars had to eased off to save their drastically fading brakes and make sure that Jenson(5^th)  and Rubins (6^th)Kova had another poor race and finished in 7^th and Kuba was the final point scorer making up for the fact that Nick h had to start at the pits after his car was founded to be under the weight limit and his race was not good as well has he had to retire after Adrian Sutil drove straight into Nick and Sutil got into trouble with the stewards who fined him $20,000.
