Ferrari is still obviously sandbagging here. They have RB right where they want them! Once RB gets nice and comfortable with 6-8 wins, Domenicali will spring his trap and shut this thing down. It will be a thing of beauty I tell you!

Depends, if Ferrari brings their movable wing to China, they have a legit shot to win. They have excellent race pace and will finally get to the podium.

Not if Martin Brundle is left on his own around the car before the race starts.

Oh! Thanks. That reminds me, I have to mail his check.

If KERS is working, Vettel for the win. If not, Hamilton may take the top step.

I expect one of the Ferrari's to podium. I wonder which one will get 'The Call'.

Of course I'm rooting for Fernando Alonso, but RBR is really HOT right now, or should I say Vettel is HOT right now Either way, RBR is dominate right now, and I agree that KERS will be important in China, no body is going to beat SB as long as his car stays healthy The battle for the podium will be very exciting between the runner ups, McLaren, Scuderia Ferrari and now Renault. Mercedes is still laging and the rumors of Nico going to Red Bull Racing next year seems to have taken on a life of it's own. Love Formula Racing

Sorry, my mistake, the rumor is RBR

Apr.12 (GMM) Possibly another candidate to become Sebastian Vettel’s future teammate at Red Bull has emerged in the form of Mercedes GP driver Nico Rosberg.

Bild newspaper said the 25-year-old German, who has been so impressive alongside famous teammate Michael Schumacher in 2010 and 2011, could theoretically escape from his current contract at the end of the 2011 season.

Mark Webber’s Red Bull deal is also due to end this year and there has been much speculation about Lewis Hamilton possibly leaving McLaren to join the reigning champions.

Mercedes is going to have to make room for Paul Di Resta somewhere. That kid is on fire!
