12 rounds have passed from the Formula One Championship 2011 season, and it seems that we already have a World Champion. Sebastian Vettel leads the championshi with 92 points in front of second place, Red-Bull Renault team mate Mark Webber. 7 rounds still left in this year`s season, and if things go as they went until now, Vettel will have no problems getting the second consecutive World title.

The next round will be held at the Monza circuit, a circuit that particulary doesn`t suit the Red Bulls, but this was said about the Belgian Grand Prix and Red Bull got a double there last week.

Race Information

Laps: 53
Circuit length: 5.793 km
Race length: 306.720 km
Number of times held: 80
First held: 1921
Most wins (drivers): Michael Schumacher - 5
Most wins (constructors): Ferrari - 19



This circuit is famous for bringing bad luck to the winning driver. In the past 20 years, only Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher have won the Italian Grand Prix and became champions in the same year. Last year, Fernando Alonso won the Italian Grand Prix, and lost the title in the final race.

If Vettel manages to start the race from pole, it will be hard to defeat him on track, as proven in the previous races. Will he became the only third driver in history that manages to win the Italian GP and then win the World Championship, or will he settle for a podium placement, points that will bring him closer and closer to the title.

The draw for the 2011-2012 season of the Clampions League group stage is over and we have some very interesting games in the first round. Some games involve teams that are favorites to win the trophy or they got in the final stages of last season`s Champions League.

The US Open in the last of the big smal tournaments of the season. It is hosted at Flushing Measows in New York and it offers a staggering prize money of 21 Million $ in total with about 1.5 Million $ for the winners in the singles competitions.

This season has been one of the most competitive season in the men`s game, with tle ladies being equally competitive. All the big "guns" in the men`s tournament will be here, let`s take a look at the top favorites and evaluate their chances.



Novak Djokovic The last year has been a great year for Djokovic. He currently hold twou out of the four geand slams of the season, Australian Open and Wimbledon, and he will be the man to beat at this year`s US Upen. His hise in the ATP ranking might be surprising for many, but playing in the same "era" asn Nadal and Federer and holding already 3 major championship titles at 24 years, will make Djokovic go down as one as the all time gerat players.

Despite not winning the tournament not even once, Djokovic got at least into the semi-finals in the last 4 years. He was in the final in 2007 and in 2010, but lost both againt Fereder and Nadal. The hard court is his favorite and it will be great for Djokivic if he can get the third grand slam title this year.

Rafael Nadal If anyone can get in Djokovic`s way to the title, it will be Rafael Nadal. Nadal has an amazing record of 10 major titles at tle age of 26 and surely assured his place in the history books of tennis.

He holds this year`s French Open title, the only one which eludes Djokovic. HE displayed great tennis at Wimbledon to finish as runner-up, with most believing that he had to endure a small injury.

Nadal says that he is 100% fit now and his intention are to get the his second Grand Slam of the year. But, if he wants to lift that trophy over hs head, he has to defeat the Serbian tennis machine.

Roger Federer If Roger would retire tommorow, he will go down as one of the greatest tennis players ever. With 16 major titles to his name, he`s one all time great player.

Over the past season, his form was not what everyone expected, but he still managed to get a Grand Slam title, the Australian Open in 2010.

We could say that there is a change of generations at the top of the ATP Rankings at the moment, but Feredere surely still has the ability needed to win at US Open. His form has been good lately, not like the Fereder we used to know, but a dissapointed quarter-final at Wimbledon will drive him o challenge this year`s US Open title.

Andy Murray The hard courts of Flushing Meadows suits the play of Andy Murray, but he has only a final presence in 2008 at US Open. Murray has the ability to fight with the best, but if he is good enough to beat Djokovic, Nadal or Federer remains to be seen.

Ths form of the "top three" could look overpowering for Andy Murray for the moment, but if there is one thing that Murray doesn`t lack, is fighting spirit. He will fight until the final ball of the game hoping for a top placement in this tournament.


In the Women`s Tournament, two-time defending champion Kim Clijsters and fellow 2011 Grand Slam champions Li Na (French Open) and Petra Kvitova (Wimbledon) are on top of the women`s favorites. Former US champions Venus Williams, Maria Sharapova, Svetlana Kuznetsova and Serena Williams are also in the field. It till be a evru disputed tournament also, with great games.
