    I think the other fun thing to look at will be the last three teams, without points, Sauber, Renault, and Manor.

    Just for fun, I looked at the speed trap results from Bahrain, and with a SWAG based on Manor being ahead of the other teams, now predict that Manor will finish ahead of those other two. Will it be enough for points? Probably not, I'm thinking McLaren and all the other teams will still be ahead, so that's a lot of places before the "bottom three" will finish.

    Q: Hamilton, Vettel, Rosberg
    R: Vettel, Raikkonen, Massa (I'm still waiting for the double DNF brake failure from Mercedes, why not on the longest straights in F1!)

    Nice post and data on the back of the grid runners. Id like to see Manor do good here. Interesting point on Mercedes and their brakes. How reliable are they? We dont know just yet. China just might show a weakness as you posted!

    Chinese GP: Lewis Hamilton gets five-place gearbox penalty - BBC Sport

    Not his season. But then in China it should be easy to DRS his way through the field. If he moonwalks again at the start then he will be in even deeper trouble...

    I predict Hambone will NOT win this race.
    Ferrari have a chance at winning this if Nico doesn't get a good start or makes a big mistake.

    The Autosport analysis also shows Ferrrari with better pace in most regimes so far! Should be a tight competition!
