Guess the final score - Michelin vs. Bridgestone.

I'll go for Michelin 11 - 7 Bridgestone.

I predict 12 - 6 to Michelin. The Bridgestone teams will suffer badly in the qualifyings, especially in Malaysia and Bahrain. BS drivers might win Imola, Barcelona, Montreal, Silverstone, Monza and Suzuka races and the Michelin drivers the rest 12 ones. However in rainy GPs BS propably will gain, and on the other hand the Montreal and Monza races might be so hot, that the Michelin drivers would have an advantage. The Michelin advantage on hot tracks could get smaller during the season.

This wasn't really meant as a RC bets and games thread - I posted it in the RC. I also wanted to discuss how and when the trend may shift, e.g. will we see such a dramatic shift in favour of Michelin once the summer starts?

IMO Michelin's advantage won't be as dramatic as everyone seems to think. Their advantage was reduced after the illegal profile ruling last year, and unless they come up with a new trick, the Ferrari will still take plenty of wins. How many i won't say unless you make this a B&G competition ;)
