Little love lost between duelling duo

After nine gruelling months, 19 races and 1,037 race laps the Formula 1 circus has reached the deserts of Abu Dhabi and it’s final stop of its globe-trotting calendar.

For the sixth time in nine years the battle for the all important drivers title goes down to the wire, to be fought out after one of the most intense inter-team battles in the history of the sport.

Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg, team-mates at Mercedes, friends and rivals since childhood will battle it out for the accolade and all under the cloud of the new double points rule.
