What say we have a go at the competitive order for the flyaway races?

1) Ferrari
2) Redbull
3) Mercedes
4) Lotus
5) McLaren
6) Williams
7) Sauber
Force India
9) Toro Rosso
10) Caterham
11) Marussia

With McLaren overtaking Lotus by the 4th or 5th race and competing with Merc regularly for 3rd.

Haha, i am the same in groups cause i like to hear the commentary to help know what's going on. Must absorb ALL the information! I know a few people who talked constantly when i've watched a race with em...

I can just imagine you going psycho on them and telling them to "SHUT THE >>>> UP" lol

Heh nah i've just developed my ability to drown out all voices except the commentators. There was a time at the back end of 2011 where we had no internet (and i don't have a tv) so i had to watch several races in a row at the pub, i had no choice but to learn how to ignore all sounds except the tv then.

What say we have a go at the competitive order for the flyaway races?

I find it impossible to get too specific, but here's my guess:

1: Red Bull
2-5: Lotus, Ferrari, Mclaren, Mercedes
6-7: Sauber and Williams
8: Force India
9: Toro Rosso
10: Marussia
11: Caterham

Living in Asia our commentator is Steve Slater.

I do all I can to hear any voice BUT his

Here's a question... can Williams win another race this year???

[elfinitty]

For me,I don't understand the commentary at all,I watch it for free but on RTL.

Williams can win this year and maybe Force India on the podium based on the performance last year

Who's the co-commentator now? Is it Chandhok? I'm currently free of Slater-speak since I'm in Europe, but when I get back in August I hope to have at least 1 decent commentator.

Are you ready for mine?


Vettel will win it. (I've been right 4 out of 5 years).

I predict a very high scoring place for the two Finns.

[What's Burning?]

Lewis will win in Montreal.

[LewEngBridewell]

Lewis will win in Montreal.

Unless Button does him over on the final lap

Lewis is no Vettel....

I'll have to go with this as well. I'd love to see Bottas on the podium this year. He's got the talent, just gotta see how this years Williams is.


My prediction for the season is is for a close fight at the pointy end being lead by Red Bull, McLaren (I think people are really underestimating Macca this season ) and Ferrari, with Lotus and Mercedes closer than they were last year, but still not quite at the pointy end.

Midfield will hopefully be a slugfest between Williams, Sauber, and FI, with Toro Rosso bringing up the rear. I do believe at least one of the Williams drivers will podium, as will The Hulk in the Sauber.

And for the minnows, I see Marussia finally overhauling Caterham this year.

1. Red Bull
2. McLaren
3. Ferrari
4. Lotus
5. Mercedes
6. Williams
7. Sauber
8. Force India
9. Toro Rosso
10. Marussia
11. Caterham

Testing has not been too shabby for McLaren by any means. Definitely not worth writing off. It never is.
