So, on we move to the final round of the season at Laguna Seca. Several championships have been wrapped up, but there is still a lot at stake as people look to end the season, and their time on Forza 3 on a high!

Last year Venom took the championship, and the race in style, controlling at the front after surviving some early pressure from the Peugeot team. Polaris took the GT championship here after following RIOT past polesitter Born KIA, and then to the line in an incident littered race.

So, what is the story approaching the 2011 race? Well in LMP1 the championship is Venom's to walk away with after hammer fhb walked away from the series. But at a slower speed track than Silverstone we could see a Lola come to the fore with no grip restrictions. However, a large threat for overall honours could come from the LMP2 class.

The smaller prototypes are lighter and have a slight edge over their more powerful cousins on tighter circuits. So, newly crowned LMP2 champion TMR Rossi will be looking to celebrate in style. Or can the newer contenders fight against his impressive speed?

In LMGT there is no such inter-class complication, but nonetheless I expect a battle as close as ever. In the last few races Matti Dude has strung together an impressive sequence of pole positions in his Jaguar, and, now backed up with his first win, will be looking to go with his momentum against the Teams and Drivers champions Risi Competizione and ShiftyF1. Or could we see a Porsche take to the top of the podium? After a disappointing season, Polaris will be looking to make amends.

All in all the racing should be as good as ever! Discuss:

Not sure what it is or if it's dangerous but I've only done it once and I thought Sesame Street was downstairs.

I have a feeling the Jag is going to be quite off the pace here, I'd be happy to make it in to lobby 1.
