F1 GP Spain: Your predictions (Read 2210 times)

A day early for this one as I forgot to post the last two races on the Monday  Tongue

The first European race at a circuit EVERY team and driver know like the back of their hands due to the testing programmes carried out there over the winter and recently too.

McLaren need to get back on the ball for this one but can anybody stop Ferrari? Can BMW stay ahead of the "Big Two" in the constructors championship?
Will Super Aguri even make the starting line up?

And...


Can anyone catch Matt?..  Wink

Predictions close 1200BST Saturday

Kimi
Felipe
Lewis

If theres a track BMW could win on, this will be it. But only if they qualify 1st. Their cars have done okay in testing here, but the Mclarens and Ferrari's are much quicker round the track over long runs.
Keep an eye on Renault here. They did okay in testing and lets face it, it's not a track that needs a high top speed.

Tricky one this, so im not really sure of the result!

How about :-

Massa
Kubica
Hamilton

Although i suspect a ferrari 1-2 is more likely but if mclaren can get there traction sorted, and BMW can pile on the pressure even more then who knows! Should be a cracking race Smiley

Im still a little suspect on the way massa won in bahrain, 'just when he needed to' much like kimis win in france last season, 'just when he needed it' both under pressure at the time, massa more so i fear, with the imminent arrival of alonso..... Grin*

Need to think about this one. However, 10 to 1 Max gives it a miss (again) Grin

He's already said he wont be attending. "has other plans"
I found it funny over the weekend he said he had "7 messages of support" for every message to step down. Yet aside from Bernie, I can't honestly remember hearing someone back him up. No wait, I believe some motorsport government in the middle east did. But surely if there were these messages of support from the bigger countries he'd have published them by now.
So far, the motorsport agencies of, Britain, France, Germany, Spain, America and canada, Australia and Bahrain have all call for him to step down. Not sure what big motorsport nation is left for him to have as backing. Quite frankly the go karting legends of papua new guinea arn't going to hold much weight in the FIA court room this june.

Who do you think is next in line to head the FIA when Max goes? Wink
Your hardly going to upset the guy who's pretty much hand picked you for the job are you?
I think thats half the reason he's trying to stay on so long. So he can appoint the people he wants into the FIA rather than being booted out and someone else being voted in. Roll Eyes

Jean Todt, it goes without saying he will be the next president. I just find it amusing the way they go about supporting him. Well, I say "they" in the loosest terms...Bernie half hearted Ecclestone and Jean I want your job Todt..............I would still like to be a fly on the wall in the McLaren canteen at lunch time though Grin
