Ralf and JPM seem to believe that they'll be even competition for DC and Kimi this year, maybe a bit better, but not up with Schumi and Rubenho. What do you think?

 

If Williams & BMW have kept up the pace of development, then they should easily beat McLaren. My personal belief is that McLaren is going to have enough problems this year with Kimi. I think DC is keen to humiliate him (to show his own prowess) and probably has a good chance. Heifeld really should have gotten that drive.

 

I think unless McLaren do something to overcome BMW's engine superiority, they're in for a rough year. Well, relatively at least...they still won't end up any lower than third.

 

I think Juan Pablo, if he doesn't break a lot, is really going to push Michael. Michael doesn't get to say "He passed me -- I didn't see him coming" again.

 

Sir Frank and BMW might be a hard combination to beat this year(for second place). Frank's drivers aren't bad either. Go prancing horse!

 

I think so.

Mclaren lose a good driver this year, if nothing surprise happen, Mclaren will having alot problems like last year, and DC never come close to MS. JPM and Williams is the only team can compare to MS and Ferrari.

 

I think McLaren will be third this year. I think Williams will be second and of course Ferrari first. I think Raikonen is a good driver, but this will be a new car for him and it will take a few races for him to be comfortable. I am going to go against the grain here...I am not a DC fan, I don't think he is going to shine brightly against KR by the end of the season.

Biggest thing for Williams to stay close to Ferrari will be reliability.

Just my 2 cents.
