THE PREDICTION

The 2021 Grand Prix season will reach its conclusion in Abu Dhabi and there could be fireworks after another hugely controversial race in Saudi Arabia last week. Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton were once again involved in a coming together with the defending champion eventually getting the better of his rival to draw level on points ahead of this final race of the year. Verstappen won at this venue last season but Hamilton boasts five victories in Abu Dhabi and having driven himself into contention at just the right time with three successive victories to his name, Hamilton can continue his rich vein of form to earn a fifth consecutive World Drivers’ Championship while also taking the outright lead over Michael Schumacher in what would be a record-breaking eighth title.
