F1 TV season in .us begins in 45 minutes. I will probably be asleep; I have to be at work stupidly early in the morning. I'm so excited; it's funny how at the end of a season it feels like it's going to be forever until the racing starts, but when it does finally start it seems like last season just ended a couple of weeks ago.
I have high hopes for this season. Aside from the cars being ugly as hell, llke some sort of combination of a golf cart and a bulldozer, I think it's going to be a great season. I have very high hopes for my boys Kubica and Vettel, and I believe Ferrari will be the team to beat for the constructors championship. BrawnGP - Wow! The preliminary testing shows incredible promise, lets hope the cars pass scrutineering.
Dont forget to get your spotting poster for this year!
7 predictions for the 2009 Season:
- Kubica will lead Heidfeld in points, and will make 4 podium appearances
- The spread between first and third in the drivers points will be less than 19 points
- 5 cars will pit for repairs on the first lap of each race (FIA crackdowns on 1st corner maneuvering render this prediction null and void)
- Raikonen can't help but scoring points in the Ferrari, but his performance will continue to be lackluster
- Ferrari powered cars will outpace Mclaren powerplants for the first half of the season, but the gap will narrow by the time they get to Silverstone
- Alonso will be a third, fourth or fifth in the championship but for the Renault's reliability
- Vettel will make it to the podium twice
