Mercedes have won both Formula One titles already, and Red Bull are sure of second place, but Sunday's season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix will be a last roll of the dice for some of those behind them.
With an unprecedented double points on offer, 'Abu Double' has the power to bring joy and despair in equal measure and not just for Mercedes rivals Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg.
For tail-enders Caterham, in administration and facing closure unless they can find a buyer, the day-to-night race at Yas Marina could literally be a last blast before darkness engulfs their hopes.
