The Best Driver Did Not Win
As the Hamilton vs. Rosberg title battle goes down to the wire, the big question is who will win the 2016 World Drivers' Championship. While the odds may be stacked in Rosberg\u2019s favour, this is Formula 1 \u2013 and nothing\u2019s over till it\u2019s over. Could Max Verstappen and Red Bull Racing be Lewis Hamilton\u2019s best ally in the \u2018duel of the desert'? Here\u2019s a prediction we\u2019re going to stick our heads out and make \u2013 respective of the outcome, when fans look back on the season they\u2019ll probably believe that \u2018the best driver did not win'.\n Niki Lauda thinks that Max Verstappen could be the greatest ever Formula 1 driver \u2013 but he needs to be \u201ccareful\u201d on his way. Cute that Lauda still thinks that Max will listen to him. As we all know, Max Verstappen listens to NOBODY! Meanwhile, Carlos Sainz admits that the drivers themselves don't understand Formula 1's rules. What hope do we ordinary mortals have then?\n Bernie Ecclestone said some pretty interesting (and scandalous) things last week. He said Singapore \u201cwas just an airport\u201d before Formula 1 happened and talked about Americans and their short attention spans. Bernie proposed a new double header race format and we tell you what we think about it. Of course, as fans, we're thrilled! \n Mithila\u2019s wish for Abu Dhabi is for fans to be treated to a serious Hamilton vs. Rosberg wheel to wheel battle on track. Could there be a better way to decide the World Championship? Formula 1 bids goodbye to two great drivers, Felipe Massa and Jenson Button. Finally, we make a confident prediction about Verstappen in Abu Dhabi. Tune in!\n (Season 2016, Episode 39)\n The Inside Line F1 Podcast is hosted by Mithila Mehta and Kunal Shah.
