:D All Right Mates! Just to show I am not learning anything:

1: Kimi Raikkonen in his (at last) finely tuned Ferrari
2. Felipe Massa in his also finely tuned Ferrari
3. Lewis Hamilton in his brilliantly tuned McLaren
4. Heikki Kovaleinen in his less brilliantly driven McLaren
5. Robert Kubica in the beautiful Sauber (w/BMW power)
6. Nick Heidfeld in his equally beautiful machine
7. Fernando Alonso 2 time WDC in his less than fantastic Renault
8. Timo Glock in the mysterious Toyota

and the pole will be Kimi Raikkonen's

Might as well dream 8)

Looks like a race of who doesn't learn the most :shock: :shock: :shock:

Mine ....

Winner: Felipe Massa - He is on a roll
Second: Kimi Raikkonen - Strong Ferrari despite poor qualifying
Third: Heikki Kovalainen - He is always there
Fourth: Robert Kubica - Continues to shine
Fifth: Fernando Alonso - Impressive in the Renault
Sixth: Jarno Trulli - Toyota getting stronger
Seventh: Lewis Hamilton - Due for a spin or a tyre failure :shock:
Eighth: Sebastian Vettel - Looks like he is good and so is his car

Pole: Felipe Massa - Hard to bet against him

Lets see who gets it right this time ...... (still waiting for Valencia results :( )

it's really tempting to pick the mclarens ahead of the ferraris since mclarens are usually faster in cooler temperatures. :(

I just hope Spa is long enough for the ferraris to warm up their tires.. :D
