How will the season shape
We are certainly shaping for an interesting next half to the season. With at least the top four drivers in a realistic position to take the title. Nick and Heikki will have some work to do, but if they remain on track and consistently end in the points then they will also be in it. We have seen all of the top four dealing with issues and mistakes so the winner is going to be the one that makes the least amount of errors in the remaining races.
