    No way Perez goes to the Scuderia.

    Would love to see Bottas and Hulkenburg battling on the same team.

    I don't expect big changes, would be nice to see Hulkenberg in top team though.

    I think Ferrari will take whoever Vettel wants the most.

    Sparks gone off with Hulkenberg IMO.

    Ferrari: Vettel - Kimi (if he has a good season), otherwise Bottas
    Mclaren: Button - Alonso
    Mercedes: Hamilton - Rosberg
    Red Bull: Ricciardo - Kvyat
    Williams: Massa - Nasr (If Bottas goes to Ferrari)

    I think Ferrari needs at least one latin blooded driver

    There may be something to that. Since 1964, when the two driver teams really took hold, there have been 10 Ferrari WDC. Nine of those were won by Northern Europeans (GB-1, Austria-2, Germany-5, Finland-1). The 10th, Scheckter, is South African. Of the 11 teammates to the WDC, 10 were Latin (Brasil-6, Italy-1, Argentina-1, Mexico-1, Swiss/Italian-1), the non-Latin was Canadian.

    It seems that having a Latin driver push a Northern European driver pays dividends.

    You may read into that what you will.

    This seems most accurate. But we forget Lotus now with MB PU. They just might surprise.

    Mercedes won again with Rosberg this time, and Ferrari sucked all the way.

    In 2016 engines are being freed completely, voted but the majority of the makers sick of having wasted one more year powerless to MB's advantage and Hamilton has disappeared up his own ass, process started in 2013 when his pubes started attacking his scalp

    Steve and T12 are convert Nico fans now, Toil has given himself to preaching at a Hyde Park Corner after seeing the face of Lewis in a crumpet

    Ferrari-Kimi and vettel..if Kimi decides to quit, Hulkenberg will join....but doubt it, the kimster will rule

    Mclaren-Chilton and Satoru Nakajima (no one else wanted to drive that crap...)

    Merc - Still the same guys

    Cans - Ricci and verstappen...

    safety car - Alonso (that way he can lead arace again after being last in every race in 2015....)

    Bas makes the most sense to me, except that I believe Kimi will be gone and Bottas or Hulkenberg take his seat.

    I can't imagine Ferrari pilots changing in 2016. Massa just left and Seb just got there.

    If Kimi is consistently beating Seb, I can see him heading for the exit.
