Jenson is obviously the overwhelming favourite given his WDC lead with maximum of 20 points on offer but I would say that Vettel is the biggest threat to JB as Rubens is unlikely to be faster than Jenson by a big enough margin to overhaul the points differential and having an identical car to Jenson. Vettel really has nothing to lose right now so he'll probably go all out; it's a case or glory or bust for the German, I think he'd prefer to finish third in the championship than settle for second ahead of Rubens, Vettel is a racer in the truest sense, always out to maximise his potential even if that means risking a collision to going off.
Jenson doesn't have that ultimate racing instinct, Jenson in contrast will always play it safe, doing the minimum required to gain his first world drivers championship. I have a feeling that the Brawn will struggle at Interlagos so another low score or even no score could be on the cards and Abu Dhabi is a complete unknown, I wouldn't be surprised to see Vettel win the championship by one point come the end of the Abu Dhabi weekend. But as a Brit in exile I hope that Jenson can take the championship as this may be his only chance given that McLaren and Ferrari will presumably be back to full strength next season.
