Fernando Alonso is confident he'll receive equal treatment from McLaren - Mercedes heading to Brazil

And in case you have no idea what's at stake this Sunday in Brazil, it's the 2007 F1 world championship.

After what has been an incredible 2007 F1 season, the world title is not going to be decided until the final race in Brazil concludes. All three drivers, Kimi Raikkonen from Ferrari and McLaren teammates, Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton, each have a crack at it, making it a final three-way dance for the championship.

Of course, the focus is on the two McLaren - Mercedes drivers each jockeying for the world title. Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso have been going at each other's throats for most of the season and there's no better way of winning this rivalry than gloating in front of your teammate with the world title on your right hand.

Fernando Alonso, who already made it public that he'll be leaving McLaren by season's end, claims he's confident that McLaren will give him equal opportunity to win the title at the 2007 Brazilian Grand Prix despite the fact that he'll be switching teams when all of this is over.

''I am sure we are going to Brazil with full equality across the team and two cars capable of fighting for victory in the race and the championship,'' Fernando Alonso said.

''Although I am now only four points away from Lewis, I still need for there to be a lot of circumstances in my favor for me to win the drivers' title that are out of my control. But for sure I will be doing everything that is under my control to make it happen. I have to do my bit and then hope everything else falls into place.''

Lewis Hamilton leads the drivers' championship standings with 107 points while Fernando Alonso sits second with 103.

Kimi Raikkonen, on the other hand, has 100 and still has a shot at snatching the world title away from the two McLaren drivers in Brazil.
