Well, it's time for the final race of the year in picturesque Abu Dhabi. A technical, flowing circuit that has been won by Merc quite a few times. Red Bull is getting faster and Ferrari is coming off a double DNF from what looked like an error on Seb's side of things. Albon is signed for next year to pair with Brazil race winner Max Verstappen and Gasly is signed for Toro Rosso next year. Gasly is coming off of an amazing 2nd place finish after some great pace and strategic pitstops, which is like a race win for Toro Rosso. Albon would've have a great finish in Brazil as well, but unfortunately an aggressive Hams late spun him during a pass attempt; his penalty put Sainz on the podium (first podium for McLaren in quite some time) and the Alfa Romeo duo of (the wiley) Raikkonen and Giovinazzi in 4th and 5th, respectively. So now folks are looking to finish on a high note -- Hulk still has no drive, there are no open seats for 2020, but he can look good for his next employer and a potential return in 2021. Ferrari is going to try salvaging driver teamwork heading into the winter and Bottas is going to try to get the stink of his Brazil DNF off of him with a good showing in Yas Marina. Finally, many teams are looking to get a jump on 2020 development. Tune in for the final action of 2019, it should be another solid race day.

Enjoy your holiday weekends and be safe on the roads.
