2010 Formula One Season
« on: 10 March 2010, 11:46:44 »

I know some hate it and some find it dull but personally I love it!

I've watched F1 for over 30yrs  :o and can't remember looking forward to a season more you've got the returns of Schumacher and Lotus, ditching refuelling, Button vs Hamilton, Alonso vs Massa, Alonso vs Hamilton, Schumacher vs everyone 19 tracks, 9months....it's the reason I never work Sundays  :y

Who's going to win? Off the top of my head I can see Hamilton, Button, Massa, Alonso, Vettel, Webber, Rosberg and Kubica easily capable of winning races, of them I think the two Ferrari cars will be the ones to beat - I don't see Schumacher taking any chequered flags, I reckon Button will be a firm no.2 at McLaren - i've read a lot of rubbish about how Button is better placed to win at McLaren because Hamilton's style of driving is more damaging than Button's smooth style on the tyres - I seriously doubt Hamilton and his team haven't sorted that out for this seasons heavier cars - they're not idiots  :y

Heart says Massa to win WDC (losing the championship by a single point on the last bend of the last race at your home GP 2 years ago, losing with supreme dignity and then that crash that nearly killed him last year) but my head says Alonso - best driver in the field, in one of the best cars this year  8-)

Am rooting for any of the Brittsh drivers.

Would be nice for a 1-2-3 between in the drivers championship at the end of the year, and if it was then hopefully schuey might break off once and for all, too much revolves round his whims.

hopefully Mercedes allow both Schumy and Rosberg to race as equals - but knowing Schumacher he will dominate the team to the detriment of his teammate, and anyone else who gets in his way  :o

I think it will be an interesting season too.

Personally, I think Schumacher's neck will still give him problems and i reckon the championship will finish alonso 1st, vettel 2nd, hamilton 3rd.

Timo Glock's had a couple of good podium finishes, but this year I can't see his new Virgin team "doing a Brawn" unfortunately  :(

He's also one of the few drivers to overtake on the outside at Interlagos at the first corner in the wet and get away with it.(Few seasons ago though)

I agree it should be the most interesting season for some time with the new teams, driver line ups and regulation changes. Not so sure that any one team is going to run away with the title but without a doubt, Ferrari, McLaren, Mercedes and Red Bull are likely to be the teams to beat. Nice to see a few a few new teams including Lotus coming in this year but think it'll take them a while to move up the grid.

Being local to me I'm rooting for Team Lotus. It's just a shame they couldn't employ any British drivers this time.

Really looking forward to Sunday's race. It wuill be interesting to see who gets a good start to the season. I think the McLarens will do well.
