Looking forward to this, especially as tomorrow morning I fly out to watch it - woohoo
Got some special tickets which means we're being part hosted by Williams including a few Q&A sessions with the team and a meet and greet with Massa & Bottas Yeehaw and all that!
Ay questions you think I should ask

Current points, with four races remaining:
HAM - 302
VET - 236 (-66)
ROS - 229 (-73)
If they finish the USGP in that same order, HAM-VET-ROS, then the points will be
HAM - 327
VET - 254 (-73)
ROS - 244 (-83)
So Vettel would be 73 points behind with 75 still available from three races. If Hamilton wins, then only Vettel finishing second can mathematically keep the championship open until the next race.

Providing there are no reliability problems I'm going to say it'll be Hamilton-Rosberg-Vettel and Hamilton will get his much desired third championship.
Deserved, though I suspect the sheer volume of post-race Senna comparisons will be cringeworthy.Hamilton has more or less had a perfect year and has done no more or less than what he needed to to stay ahead of a very fast team mate.
That said, I'm still looking forward to Ferrari and maybe others catching up car wise. It's not the fault of Hamilton he's in the best car and it's not as if it drove itself, but it doesn't make for a massively exciting drivers championship.
