With Rubens taking the win at Monza on Sunday and Button following him across the line in second, Brawn GP has all but won the 2009 World Constructors’ Championship.  The Brawn teammates had another phenomenal outing, finishing 1-2 and securing the maximum amount of points possible while simultaneously turning the Drivers Championship into a 2 pony race.  While theoretically there are 4 drivers still mathematically alive, the 2 previously mentioned as well as the Red Bull Racing duo, the 2009 season is moving away from Europe and back to lower speed, aero-demanding circuits where Brawn has shown strength all year long.

So the question is, after Rubens strong showing in Italy today, who would you take to win it all in Abu Dhabi?

Lewis Hamilton clinches his 15th career Pole at Monza, while Adrian Sutil continues to ride wave of success at low downforce circuits for Force India.  Taking a close look at the fuel weights, there seems to be 2 different race strategies playing out.  The top 3 qualifiers seem to be on a 2 stop fuel strategy, while the remaining 7 will most likely opt for a one-stopper.  It should be interesting to see it unfold, as we will have 2 different races transpiring simultaneously, and will not see the true placement until the second round of pit stops. Monza never fails to entertain!
