Who's going to win the WTCC?
3 guys in the running only, 5 points seperates the lot...one race to go being Macau, traditionally a BMW circuit, but hey, Valencia was traditionally an Alfa circuit once too!
Who do you reckon? |

Yeah, I knew you'd turn up.
I guess Giovanardi's got a chance, IF HE SWITCHS TO BMW |

I would say D.Müller, however Priaulx will have a good help at Macau with Huisman. Both recently have experience at Macau, however Giovanardi hasn´t been 17 years ago.

Giovanardi...because Dirk and Priaulx will be faster, but they will fight too much, and Macau's track has got many barriers at the side

I'd like to see Priaulx win it. He's such a nice guy and intelligent racer.
However, my gut feeling is that Dirk will see it out in the end, for whatever reason. Didn't Dirk win the non-championship events at Macau at the back end of last year? |

I am fully behind Priaulx, but I think Dirk deserves it more than anyone as he has been close so many times. The title race always seem to be very close in this series each year which makes for great battles, it would be unfair to say who is the better.

Hmmm.....well I've made myself look positively stupid here.
I'll have to watch last years race and get some revision in! hehehe.... All I really remember was the race being pretty close, but impossible to overtake. |

Don't want to jinx him so won't say what I think, except I hope it is Andy Priaulx at the end of the day.

My Money's on Priaulx to win it again. He's got the momentum after beating Dirk in race 2 at Valencia. Givonardi's an outsider as I see it, it'll depend on BMW Mistakes for him to win it again.

Surely that's one bodyguard each? (Not quite as good as Giovanardi's, he got a J-Lo style entourage) |

True, Jorg wll more than likely help Dirk but I don't know about Huisman. He's not a Schnitzer driver, he'll help either to fend off Givonardi I reckon. He won't hold up either Andy or Dirk should they stroll u behind him....if hes even ahead of them.....

Just has to be Andy P.
1. Cos he's a Brit 2. Cos he's a Brit 3. Cos he's a Brit And after his performance in the penultimate round, with struggling for top speed due to an incorrect choice of diff I think he deserves it. |

Interesting that (at this time) the guy who's actually leading the championship is last!
Though Alfa Fan, alfa57, alfan,& Dani Filth are among the Giovanardi voters...hmmm, a non-biased decision there hey fellas |
