United States GP 2018

Lewis Hamilton could clinch the title in the United States grand prix this weekend if he outscores Vettel by eight points. Anyway, it is now a matter of when, not if – despite Mercedes’ Toto Wolff saying the opposite. In COTA, both drivers have won but Lewis has taken by far more wins than Seb. A fun fact is that all races in this circuit have been won from the front row of the grid.

The model thinks that Lewis will take, as usual in the last races, both the pole and the win with Seb coming 2nd in the race. I do agree that Hamilton will win but I believe that Bottas will finish 2nd. I would like to see Kimi putting up a good show though I doubt it. Let’s see what happens…

Vettel, Gasly and Hartley have all received grid penalties.
