Only 6 more races to go before the chequered flag is waved for the final time at the Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi, after a lengthy 2016 season which also happens to be longest ever in F1 history. Yet, there's still a lot to be decided in the 2016 F1 World Championship. Here's a quick look.
Constructors Title

| Ferrari-Red Bull rivalry might lead to flash-points such as the one at La Source in Spa |
It is only a matter of time before Mercedes pick up this seasons constructors Championship - It may happen either in the very next race in Sepang or the one after the Japan. But the real battle is not for the top spot but to decide who ends up being the bridesmaid to the Mercs. A closely fought battle between Ferrari and Red Bull might go on till Abu Dhabi and it is still anybody's to lose. Red Bull have impressed this year immensely with their highly capable cars and equally aggressive drivers in Ricciardo & Verstappen. Ferrari are having a torrid season according to their own standards and are winless this season. Raikkonen has been showing glimpses of his glittering past in the last few race by outpacing his teammate Vettel and this augur good things for Ferrari in the races to come. This is an exciting battle to look forward to in the final leg of the season.
Another hardfought battle that is brewing in mid-table is between Williams and Force India for the fourth and fifth places. With both of them running Mercedes engines it is difficult to pick the winning horse. A nail-biting battle to the finish is on the cards.
