[rpvankasteren]

It is allowed to wait until after first qualification before predicting, just to make sure everyone realises.

 

[ScimitarPES2]

Awesome. I like the way we could lose points.

With a less Ferrari dominated season likely, it'll be harder to predict just a top 3. May the best man win!

1 Alonso
2 Fisichella
3 Räikkönen

[Dream Team]

Schumacher will crash again, he'll try to pass everybody and it will be impossible because bridgestone have not done a good work in the pre-season.

 

[rpvankasteren]

Although it might rain, and Michelin has yet to have a good wet race.

 

[dannyeli]

i think the ferraris were racing with a lot of gas. If they come out with a lot of fuel, they might be able to take advantaje later on, when every team will be at the pit stops or if they race very light on fuel.

I hope

 

[rpvankasteren]

Nah, everyone was light. They have to run the 2nd quali on sundaymorning with the first load of fuel fo the race, not the 1st.
