Seven days to go!

Before the bulldust stops and the flag drops.
So who will be hot? Let us know your thoughts, dreams and hopes.

Mine?
Ferrari obviously, McLaren probably as they've been getting stronger
and stronger however the team to watch will be Williams. They won't
catch Ferrari/McLaren, the gap was too big but they will give 'em a
scare on occasion. Who comes next? Renault then Toyota, yes they've
improved but reliability is the question there. Red Bull and BMW are
next but BMW have had a few testing issues so the finishing order in
my humble opinion goes: Ferrari, McLaren, Williams, Renault, Toyota,
Red Bull, BMW, etc. Do I get a Kewpie Doll if I'm half right? LOL.

Now watch all that turn to excrement next Sunday :-)

beers,

Back in January I posted

> Honda

> Force India
>
> Super Aguri

At this point I would reverse the order of the leading group, and swap
Honda and Force India. No other changes.

Thanks for your replies.
Keith,
So far the forecast is 35C, any hotter and McLaren will be in trouble
and your and my sentimental favourites will not miss the opportunity,
I can't stress enough how tight the Williams boys (girls) are this
year. I just wish Webber were in the FW30 we'd be looking front row
but over a race distance I reckon Nico has all that's required, so
bring it on.

Hey Mark,
You copied my list ;-), just kidding.
Although I think you've underestimated Toyota and the BullRed is
pretty quick although maybe not in Melbourne. Don't forget at least
one will surprise, my tip is RedBull (wishful thinking) and maybe BMW
as both have been going to great lengths to confuse.

Which ever way it goes I don't mind as I reckon we're in for some
tight racing so bottoms up and don't forget to zinc ya nose, see you
on Friday. Or if your northern hemisphere set ya video recorder or
alarm clock.

beers,
build
