It will be a Ferrari that wins, so I hope it's Kimi.

Can Massa continue his winning ways?
I think he will finish behind Kimi

Can Raikkonen keep his title lead?
Yes, he was so strong in this circuit for the last couple of years and he will perform well this weekend

Can BMW maintain their stunning form?
Yes, they will beat McLaren yet again but still behind the Ferraris

Can McLaren fight back?
No, they didn't shown any progress during last week test session

And what of the rest: Toyota, Renault and Williams etc...
They will be one to watch, maybe Trulli or Alonso can put themself between the 2 McLaren drivers

...and can Sebastian Vettel finish?
I think he can, but still outside top 10, maybe 11th or 12th

No cuz he'll retire in the race

Yes,as Whitmarsh said they have made a lot of changes that can't be seen on the car and Lewis is happy with the car how it improved..

Looks like alot of people are rooting for ferarri but hmm I suppose this race would be a good fight between ferrari and mclaren. Wonder how Hamilton is gonna perform with much pressure on his head. I too would like to see Alonso perform on his home turf. Lastly, I want BMW on the podium!! In any order. I'm not that greedy =)

oh and about the other teams. I think Williams would bring some magic. Like in any race, anything can happen

Darn, I can't wait for the race! It's the only excuse I have right now to get away from these books. :nosweat: No exams can stop me from watching my F1. :cool:
Hope it's an exciting one at least, and not a borefest like it has been on this circuit in the last years :tired:

Can Massa continue his winning ways?
No, Kimi will show no mercy to him.

Can Raikkonen keep his title lead?
Without a doubt, yes.

Can BMW maintain their stunning form?
They will humiliate McLaren

Can McLaren fight back?
No. They can't, because that "curse" will hit them again. (Every second year is worse than last season was) And only Heikki will hit the finnish line, Lewis "the crasher" Hamilton will loose his nerve once again and crash in that new schicane which was introduced last year. :thumbsup:

And what of the rest: Toyota, Renault and Williams etc...
It will go: Toyota, Williams, Honda, Renault etc.

...and can Sebastian Vettel finish?
Maybe, if not in top 10 then top 15. Flag:##

Super Aguri- it is rumoured that Honda have given them enough money to complete the Barcelona weekend, and that if nothing is found before Monday, the team could be officially wound up within the week. Neither Honda or Super Aguri have confirmed that that is the case.
