Alonso! Being at your home track gives you at least 100hp.

Lewis then Nico........then someone else. Mercedes will be + .6 seconds up in quali. if I've got the pulse of this.

Other prediction will be that the race will involve copious amounts of following and not a lot of passing. Nature of the track and the aero. 2017 will be more of a parade.

Because it's a test track and everyone knows this track better than any other, it will be the "Noah's Arc" of race results... 2 by 2 with Mercedes followed by Ferrari followed by Red Bull followed by Williams. Lewis finally gets
Off the snide and wins one

I would like to see Hammy as he is channeling his inner Jenson Button on dealing with adversity.

I hope Verstappen and Ricardo do very well to show that Red Bull did the right the for bitch slapping Kvyat for acting like, well, a little bitch.

Hammy
Nico
Verstappen?

I think F1 has been a lot more exciting this year but it could be soooo much better. Any fan of F1 knows what is needed so why is the FIA so ignorant?

late to the thread.....if quali is anything to go by the red cars have their hands full.

If at all possible Id like to see young Verstappen on the podium with the 2 Merc drivers.

Red Bull looks like they are finally moving in the right direction. They should do well here and with the added HP coming for Monaco, they could have win in the near future.
