F1 Odds Favor Raikkonen for Championship Title Ignoring Europe's winter form, sports betting outfit 'Sportsbet' has named Kimi Raikkonen as favourite to win the formula one crown in 2006. At 3/1, McLaren's Finn is ahead of reigning champion Fernando Alonso (4/1) but also Michael Schumacher (3.5/1). Honda's Jenson Button, however, is a wise bet at 13/1, as is Giancarlo Fisichella (21/1), Mark Webber (51/1) and Red Bull's David Coulthard, at 210/1. At another betting agency, however - 'Bet365' - Schumacher is the season's favourite at 3/1, followed by Raikkonen (3.25/1) and Alonso (3.75/1). Former Minardi owner Paul Stoddart agrees that the Ferrari number one would be worth a flutter. ''Ferrari is enormously advantaged by this year's tyre rule,'' he told The Australian newspaper, ''but there should be different winners through the year.'' 49-year-old Stoddart, meanwhile - who said he was missing F1 'really badly' - is in no doubt about the team likely to take home the wooden spoon. He said: ''Jordan (MF1) will come last.''
KR GF FA JPM MS JB RB Edit: Did anyone place Ralf and Trulli in there? I see some of you put them around 6-7, but I'm not too sure. BAR and Ferrari seem to be stronger than them now than last year..
OK - I'll bite 1. M. Schumacher 2. Raikkonen 3. Button 4. Alonso 5. Speed 6. Coulthard 7. Barry Chello 8. Fizzy - maybe ? I think that last years RB's were really fine cars, and this years STR looks to be a 100% clone, therefore allowing for Scott Speed to have to learn how to turn RIGHT (yeah I know), I think that STR are in for a chance of a few points early on, until that is, the FIA(sco) decide to hamper them further, then they will roll outs STR#2, with the 2.4ltr V8 and slump back to the late-mid pack for a while. Toyota's will break early on, Midlands will lap Takumi Sato racing inc, twice.
1) FR 2) JB 3) RB 4) MS 5) KR 6) JT 7) MW The first race is anybody's guess.But it will be interesting to see how all the teams stack up. It's hard to figure out Ferrari's true strength untill the european season.
Hmmm.... what I find interesting is that no one thinks that either Ferrari or Honda were show-boating during testing (running under weight in order to get fast times) and that Toyota weren't sand-bagging.
Everyone has Rubins in the list....why? 1.)Kimi 2.)Alonso 3.)Schumi 4.)coultard 5.)Trulli 6.)Liuzzi 7.)Massa
I guess you haven't followed winter testing. Honda is considered as the second best team. (behind Renault)
yeah, i didn't expect that to be true a few months ago. but rubens just came through for honda i guess
The top 7 will be Michael Schumacher Kimi Raikonnen Fernando Alonso Jenson Button Mark Webber Rubens Barrichello Giancarlo Fisichella I have no idea in which order though.... PS: I would add JPM somewhere in the top 8 too.
Sirs, I hope you realize that I will be terrorising this board thrue the whole season with phrases like "Kimi winns everytime time, everywhere". Nowadays not only because he is a Finn like I am, but also so that he would be driving Ferrari next year. Then i could really become a HC fan of Kimi/Ferrari. SO, here goes 1) KIMI 2) M Schumacher 3) Alonso 4) Button 5) Trulli 6) Coulthard 7) Massa
1. Schumie 2. MS 3. Herr Schumacher 4. The 7 time WC 5. Mikee 6. Michael Schumacher did I forget anything? Oh yeah, number 7. The Meister
