1. Nico Rosberg (Yes, really)

2. Mercedes

3. Australia for sure

4. Valtteri Bottas

5. Force India

6. Redbull i suppose

7. Kevin Magnussen (Obviously)

8. Probably Alonso, he has more of a head on him and brains seem to be needed. Although i would say Kimi will win more races. 

9. Bottas (Sorry Massa)

10. Marussia will, probably with both drivers but i'd say Bianchi will outscore Chilton. As for Caterham, i'd love to see Kamui get a point and Ericsson also because damn it do i love the Swedish.

Nice thread! Here are my initial thoughts.

 

1. Drivers Champion? Lewis Hamilton

 

2. Constructors Champion? Mercedes

 

3. Best Grand Prix of the season? China

 

4. Surprise driver of the season? Kvyat

 

5. Surprise team of the season? Force India

 

6. Biggest controversy? In Australia, the two Williams drivers are 1-2 after the Mercedes drivers crash. Massa and Bottas both run out of fuel on the last lap after fighting each other for the entire race. Vettel wins the race but the RB is found to be illegal. No action is taken.

 

7. Best rookie? Magnussen

 

8. Who will win the Ferrari intra-team battle - Alonso or Raikkonen? Alonso

 

9. Who will win the Williams intra-team battle - Bottas or Massa? Massa

 

10. Will Marussia or Caterham score points? No

 

I've got an F1 prediction league at formulaoneanalysis.blogspot.com/ - there are some similar questions. Anyone's free to join. We're looking to expand to 22 players this year.

Omg! if this actually happened!. I would literally make you the biggest! cookie you've ever seen, have this prediction written on it and personally walk hand and foot to you to deliver it. And that's if i survive the amount of face palming and hair pulling from the race itself.

 Brazil

1. Drivers Champion? Rosberg (I think he'll cope better with fuel management than Hamilton - who I still think is faster)

 

2. Constructors Champion? Mercedes (I'd love to say McLaren but I think it's another couple of years away - it's the only answer I hope I'm wrong about)

 

3. Best Grand Prix of the season? Canada (high speed straights and less grip in the hairpins; ususally a good race anyway)

 

4. Surprise driver of the season? Ricciardo (either for being incredibly good or incredibly bad, but calmer than Vettle after several DNFs)

 

5. Surprise team of the season? Marussia (for getting a point)

 

6. Biggest controversy? A uncontained turbo failure (in a Ferrari)

 

7. Best rookie? Magnussen (may even beat Button)

 

8. Who will win the Ferrari intra-team battle - Alonso or Raikkonen? Alonso (will cope better with fuel saving and his ability to hold a mental picture of the race - better outright 'flag-to-flag' pace, which I think lies with Raikkonen, won't be so much of a factor)

 

9. Who will win the Williams intra-team battle - Bottas or Massa? Massa (due to experience, although Bottas may beat him on occasion)

 

10. Will Marussia or Caterham score points? Yes (but only early on whilst reliability is still a bit flaky up and down the grid)

Fair enough, different interpretations of the question are what F1 are all about I guess, although based on everyone elses answers you may not make it past scrutineering!

How is that a surprise team?

 

If you check other threads, it seems a lot of people are writing Hamilton off this season because Rosberg is allegedly 'more intelligent'.

 

Its a surprise people are even saying things like that but there you are.

He meant that the question asked who will be the surprise team but the other poster mentioned a driver in his answer which clearly makes no sense.
