Johnny Herbert provides us with his latest round of predictions for the Brazilian GP as Lewis Hamilton continues his Drivers' Championship victory parade.

The Sky Sports F1 pundit correctly predicted that Nico Rosberg would outshine his team-mate in Mexico, who went from pole to race winner for the first time since June.

Here's what Johnny fancies for the penultimate race of the year at Interlagos...

What next in the Hamilton-Rosberg soap opera? Can Lewis break his Interlagos victory hoodoo?

Race Winner - Nico Rosberg (2/1 with Sky Bet)

It's all about power in the last sector at Interlagos. No grunt, no glory! And with his team-mate not feeling 100 per cent ahead of this week and delaying his arrival in Brazil, Rosberg can take advantage and notch up his second win in a row, at a track where Hamilton has never won.

Podium - Felipe Massa (7/2 with Sky Bet)

With Red Bull taking grid penalties for extra power units this weekend, that may open up a chance for Williams to bag another podium, if they can fend off Ferrari that is. At his home circuit, I'm looking to Felipe Massa to give the local crowd plenty to cheer.

Practice 1 - Daniel Ricciardo (25/1 with Sky Bet)

In the last five races, four different drivers have topped FP1. None of them have been Lewis Hamilton and only twice was it Nico Rosberg. So with a new power unit in his Red Bull and others limited by engine mileage, is it worth taking a chance on Daniel Ricciardo to top the session at a brilliant price? I think so.
