Hamilton will lose out unless Mercedes make him the No.1 driver, Bottas will cause trouble.

Ferrari are already using-up PU components. That will ruin their chances as the season progresses.

They also have a propensity to screw things up.

If they cannot get pole, they cannot win races like Monaco. If Mercedes have more power, they cannot be passed at places like Monza, Canada and Spa. Red Bull will probably improve and come into play.

But hopefully, the battle will continue well into the season.

Right, who was it that voted Max, show yourself now! hehe

I'm going to say Hamilton, but then I said that last year too and look how it turned out. I hope for lots of hard fought (and won) races. But it looks already like reliability is going to play a part in this wdc.

Mercedes still hold a power advantage but Ferrari have a fantastic car that can go some way to make up the deficit...If Ferrari do manage a pole this year, boy that driver will have earned it.

Ferrari will snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, following their usual internal political meltdown, leaving Hamilton to pick up the pieces

Got that the wrong way round I think. McLaren managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory for Hamilton in 2007 when they told him to stay out for too long in China. Ferrari (Kimi) lucked into the WDC because of that.

It is a big surprise that with such an open vote on which everyone is likely to have a opinion that only 67 people have responded here after 5-days.

Are the days of F1 on Pistonheads numbered?

Has anyone everyone gone elsewhere?

Whatever happened to Scuffers?
