sundayx Veteran Posted March 3, 2008 Veteran Share Posted March 3, 2008 My hopes is on Lewis and Mclaren. Second comes Kimi and Alonso. Something tells me, don't under estimate Force India. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martyn Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I fancy Ferrari this year, and Raikkonen is more consistent out of the two Ferrari drivers and he has the experience required to challenge/win the title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrashG Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Kimi and Ferrari. This first race should be a good indication of what's to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazysah Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 (edited) I support Force India because it has an Indian owner! Actually though I really support BMW Sauber... Brilliant team! As for a individual well... Massa for the title this time! I also signed up for the league.

Fergie Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 I've joined the mini league. Hope Hamilton does it this year. Also, anyone going to Silverstone? I am, Stowe is where I am sitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Frank B. Subscriber² Posted March 8, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted March 8, 2008 Guessing from the test results I think we will see the following pecking order within the teams (at the start of the season at least): Ferrari McLaren BMW Renault Williams Toyota RedBull Toro Rosso Honda Force India Super Aguri My pick for WDC? R?ikk?nen. He is fully integrated within the Ferrari team (unlike in the first half of the 2007 season when he was clearly struggling) and more consistent than Massa. McLaren will be close to Ferrari, but not close enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrashG Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I'd love for Lewis to win this season but those Ferrari's are in the sweet spot right now. Well, with a reliable car and making fewer mistakes than the few he did make last season he's got a damn good chance of taking it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fourjays Veteran Posted March 12, 2008 Veteran Share Posted March 12, 2008 I'm supporting pretty much everybody but Alonso. :laugh: I want Lewis to win overall though. :p I think Ferrari and McLaren are about equal. Last year tracks clearly suited one or the other team, but not both. Both teams think they've improved where they did poorly last year, so they should be equal now. I think BMW have slipped into the midfield. Williams (and Red Bull slightly) have made good progress over the winter, while BMW have been struggling badly with stability. This first race should be a good indication of what's to come. Melbourne isn't a great example as it's a very unique track (look at 2007). I think after Bahrain we'll have a better idea as to who is where. The lack of driver aids will make it harder still to judge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
