Odd, even though I predicted a Ferrari McLaren podium as well, I don't feel happy.

I predicted a Ferrari-McLaren coming together at the first chicane but I expected it to be Alonso-Button.

McLaren will win them all. With Lewis on the top step. No doubt. No facts or logic will convince me otherwise.

They're not red though...
they're red, green and white with a bit of black and yellow in the middle

Just so we all know... for Spa i really did think it was going to be more like Hockenheim than Turkey. But it seems it was more like Turkey. Was it the rain that changed how things went or was it the Merc engine was just too much ??

Anyways... FRAPDD's predictions with the start and so on... was creepy !

my rpedictions didnt last long, i said mclaren dominance at monza, then again i didnt know that Lewis would opt out of the F-dcut, had he put it on he may of een on pole. and i did say ferrari could challenge them, which they did. either way not as spot on as the first one.

F1 - Engine allocations post Monza

Just five rounds of the championship remain but for some, the allocation of just eight engines over the entire season could come into play.

Renault is in the strongest position with both Robert Kubica and Vitaly Petrov having completed one race with their sixth engine of the season. Most have completed one race on their seventh engine, while Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa have both completed a Grand Prix distance with their eighth and final engine.

Pedro de la Rosa has already exceeded his engine allocation, taking a grid position penalty at Spa Francorchamps as a result. The Sauber Ferrari driver will undoubtedly take further penalties in the remaining rounds of the championship.

Ferrari remains in championship contention with Monza winner Alonso, but he is out of sync with main rivals Webber, Hamilton, Vettel and Button. This could prove to be critical as the season winds down.

The current engine situation following Monza

Kubica - Renault - engine 6, 1 race
Petrov - Renault - engine 6, 1 race

Webber - Red Bull Renault - engine 6, 2 races
Barrichello - Williams Cosworth - engine 6, 2 races

Button - McLaren Mercedes - engine 7, 1 race
Hamilton - McLaren Mercedes - engine 7, 1 race (limited mileage)
Schumacher - Mercedes - engine 7, 1 race
Rosberg - Mercedes - engine 7, 1 race
Vettel - Red Bull Renault - engine 7, 1 race
Hulkenberg - Williams Cosworth - engine 7, 1 race
Sutil - Force India Mercedes - engine 7, 1 race
Liuzzi - Force India Mercedes - engine 7, 1 race
Buemi - Toro Rosso Ferrari - engine 7, 1 race
Alguersuari - Toro Rosso Ferrari - engine 7, 1 race
Trulli - Lotus Cosworth - engine 7, 1 race
Kovalainen - Lotus Cosworth - engine 7, 1 race
Yamamoto - HRT Cosworth - engine 7, 1 race
Senna - HRT Cosworth - engine 7, 1 race
Kobayashi - Sauber Ferrari - engine 7, 1 race
Glock - Virgin Cosworth - engine 7, 1 race
Di Grassi - Virgin Cosworth - engine 7, 1 race

Massa - Ferrari - engine 8, 1 race
Alonso - Ferrari - engine 8, 1 race

De la Rosa - Sauber Ferrari - engine 9, 2 races.
