BRITISH GP: Predictions

+1
very good prediction!
I have the same in mine......

1.Vettel
2.Button
3.Massa

 

Button to win. Tho Rubens usually shines here so maybe its his turn.

The BBC commentators will keep asking Lewis if he has a chance at winning.

I'll still watch roll on Friday Practice

 

Yes I will watch....

The usual processional lead by--------you guessed it!!!
Brawn
Brawn
Red Bull

Ferrari in the top 6 lead by Massa.

 

If that turns out to be true then what an exciting race it will turn out to be, i don't know if it's just me but Silverstone always holds an exciting race.

 

I'm going to go out on a limb and pick Alonso in the top 3.

 

You know what I find funny. People always complaining about too much "politics" in F1 then spend most of their time here discussing politics and not enough time just enjoying the race weekends



6 of us can enjoy this weekend

 

Race:
1) Button
2) Vettel
3) Webber

 

7

 

8. About as many as will watch next year without the top teams being involved.

 

I do both, F1 has made me cynical, theres alot to be said by not getting involved with the politics BS.

Lets face it, you could watch a race on Sunday and switch off till the next race, you might not even notice the results from the last race you watched were changed..

1. Button, he seems untouchable .
2. Vettel, is his biggest threat
3. Massa /Webber/ Alonso sorry can't decide...
4. Rubens, must be desperate to win, he may but it will make no odds if he does, JB is now #1 driver

 

My prediction: At least a half dozen replays of Button lapping Hamilton.

 

LOL ... maybe not this time, but there again I don't think Mclaren have any updates on there car so you could be right.

 

Nice review of the problem in Turkey by Massa......

Ferrari predicting points at 'difficult' Brit GP
Thursday 18th June 2009 - PlanetF1.com

While Kimi Raikkonen is predicting a difficult weekend for Ferrari at Silverstone, his team-mate Felipe Massa believes the Scuderia should be competitive.

Heading to Britain on the back of a rather disappointing Turkish GP, Raikkonen is hoping for a return to the points or even his second podium finish of the campaign. However, the former World Champ, admits Silverstone doesn't always offer the easiest of races.

"It will be a difficult British GP: a place on the podium would be a great result," he said.

"There's always lots of wind at Silverstone and it often rains, even in the summer. The track conditions are changing extremely quickly so that it's difficult to find the right set up for the car.

"Usually, when you're leading in the Championship, you hope for stable weather conditions, but this year it's different and we try to consider this variable part of the fun of racing in England."

Meanwhile, Massa reckons Ferrari can put in a strong showing this weekend as the Italian marque heads to Britain with a new front wing, a lighter chassis and more awareness of what went wrong at the previous race weekend in Turkey.

"On paper, this weekend's British Grand Prix takes place at a track with some similarities to the last race in Istanbul, where we were not so competitive: this weekend's track also features fast corners, flowing sections and a final slow sector and we will have the same two types of tyre from Bridgestone, but that doesn't mean I think we will struggle as much as we did a fortnight ago," he said.

"For a start, the new components we have on the car this weekend, including a front wing and a lighter chassis, should make us more competitive. But, more importantly, in Turkey we went backwards over the course of the weekend, after being very competitive on Friday and on Saturday morning.

"We now know why that happened, which is the most important thing: we believe that with the very high track temperatures, we ran too low on the downforce and should have run with more rear wing, because as the temperature rises, the grip from the tyres went down and we needed to compensate for that.

"As the temperature gradually got higher, our cars were running slower and slower in the first sector of the track; the one where you need the most downforce. In other words, the problem we had was related to the way we worked, rather than any specific fault on the car.

"So I think we can be more competitive this weekend, with these changes to the car."

I like this guy

 

I like him, doesn't mean I agree with him...

 

+1. Mark did well at the last GP and he was heavier than Vettel. Remember if it wasn't for Vettel taking him out he "may" have one his first GP last year.

 

Qualifying:

1) Vettel
2) Button
3) Barrichello

Race:

1) Vettel
2) Barrichello
3) Weber

Don't ask me why, but I don't think Button wins, just a gut feel. Stars lined up a little "too perfectly". He may finally have a DNF even if it isn't his fault...
