How many of the remaining races do you think L.Hamilton (or any other top drivers if you like) will win this year?

I think it´s a good bet that all the remaining races this year will be won by either Hamilton or someone else.

Hungary - Hamilton
Europe - Raikkonen
Belgium - Hamilton
Monza - Kovalainen
Singapore - Heidfeld
Japan - Hamilton
China - Raikkonen
Brazil - Massa

I hope Heidfeld does win a race because he is now only 2 podiums short (with 10) of equalling Stefan Johansson's record of having the most podiums in F1 without a victory!

Not bad, but BMW will continue their backward march I feel, and Heikki isn't going to get a win this year.

Hungary - Hamilton
Europe - Hamilton
Belgium - Raikkonen
Monza - Raikkonen
Singapore - Hamilton
Japan - Massa
China - Raikkonen
Brazil - Massa

Just a feeling that'll be the GP where he hooks it up for the full weekend.

I can see Singapore being a race of attrition, and Heidfeld has shown excellent racecraft in those type of races this season, maybe he'll go one better...

Ah yes, good point. My ludicrous show of conviction was slightly tongue in cheek!;)

Though I think Hamilton might win that one as he seems to excel at slow technical tracks. EDIT: then again he also tends to crash when confronted with new situations... :lol:

My crystal ball predictions:

Hungaroring - Hamilton
Valencia - Hamilton
Spa - Raikkonen
Monza - Raikkonen
Singapore - Hamilton
Fuji - Raikkonen
Shanhai - Raikkonen
Interlagos - Massa - title goes to the wire again, Massa will win because Raikkonen won't need it or Hamilton will be safe in 3rd.

I have consulted my sayers and these are their predictions:

Hungary.....lewis
Valencia.....lewis
spa...........massa
monza.......lewis
Singapore..lewis
fuji...........kovalainen
shanghai...lewis by amazing 126 seconds lapping kimi , massa, heidfield. Alonso finishes second and kimi third. Raining like hell. Kubica spins eleven times. Massa drives brilliantly but spins on the 26th lap.
Interlagos...lewis finishes 4th . Kimi wins the race but has already lost the WDC. I swear that this will come true :up:

LOL on Shanghai.

If there is any track in which Raikkonen is expected to win, that's Spa. It's probably his strongest track and I can't see Massa or anyone beating him there.

All of it:

"How many of the remaining races do you think L.Hamilton (or any other top drivers if you like) will win this year?"

Well, I suspect that pretty much all of the races will be won by Hamilton or one of the other top drivers. So, taken all in all, it's a pretty lobotomised question. pfc.

Oh OK, it's probably the parenthesis that's confusing you, try splitting it into two parts:-

"How many of the remaining races do you think L.Hamilton ... will win this year?"
"How many of the remaining races do you think... any other top drivers... will win this year?"

Does that make it any easier for you?

I'll try and explain it better; :)
How many of the remaining races do you think that Lewis Hamilton will win this year. If you like, instead of Lewis Hamilton you can say how many races another top driver (such as Raikkonen) will win.

Relax rabbit. We are just pulling your leg. Everyone understands what you meant. :rotfl: :wave:
Personally, I don´t think anyone else will get a sniff in. Lewis will win them all.

Huge guess, of course, since no one knows how the cars will be developed, but, considering Ferrari can catch up with McLaren in the next races, it would something like:

Hungary - Hamilton
Europe - Massa
Belgium - Kimi
Monza - Massa
Singapore - Kimi
Japan - Hamilton
China - Kimi
Brazil - Massa, to clinch the title at his home race! :clap:

Hungary - Raikkonen - LH 3rd
Europe - Raikkonen - With Kimi on his gearbox LH presses the limiter and Kimi takes the win.
Belgium - Raikkonen - Heavy rain, Massa spins and hits Lewis
Monza - Raikkonen -
Singapore - Massa - Lewis rear ends Kimi again.
Japan - Kova - LH second, Kovalainen is fired after the race. Pedro takes the #23 for the last two races.
China - Raikkonen - Lewis parks on the worlds smallest gravel trap again.
Brazil - Massa - LH DNF

My guess is he'll still be in the running at Brazil, which means this year he'll win it. Good thing too. :up:

I actually didnt want to have it looking that way because people will probably flame me saying im a lewis fanboy which im not, however, thats just going by recent form, i really dont see at the moment where the mclaren wont win other than spa where Kimi is just super human and japan where i think Ferrari may have the edge in the long straight away and the slow twisty bit like the last sector at turkey.

That's if everything runs smoothly - I've a good feeling Singapore will be quite an eventful race.

By team it's safer:

Europe - Ferrari (not really a street circuit like Monaco, more high speed, plus it'll be very hot)
Belgium - Ferrari (dominated last year)
Monza - McLaren (dominated last year)
Singapore - McLaren (like Monaco)
Japan - McLaren? (they are a bit faster now so...)
China - McLaren
Brazil - Ferrari (dominated last year)

So McLaren = 4, Ferrari = 3.

All McLaren victories will be for Hamilton, as Heiki will be playing Barrichello from now on.

So Hamilton wins the championship.
