Webber counting on assistance from Vettel

The permutations have all been worked out, so roll on the grand finale in Abu Dhabi! There are four drivers still in with a mathematical chance of taking the title, though in reality, it comes down to a three-way tussle between Fernando Alonso, Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel.

Vettel is the only one who requires a slip-up from the other two: "It's actually quite simple. Forty years ago, the drivers didn't employ any tactics; they just put their foot down. That's the way these last few races of the season have been for me."
