Well the 2010 season kicks of in just 2 weeks!

This should be one interesting season, Hamilton and Button together both driving for Mclaren, Schumachers back in it! with Rosberg for Mercedes GP.

Let the battles commence!

New teams such as Lotus, Campos, Team US, and Virgin could spice things up a bit....

The first race is the GULF AIR BAHRAIN GRAND PRIX on the 14th March.

I think im going to place a nice little wager on Hamilton to win the 2010 season, hopefully this year with a decent car he should come out on top!

01 2010 FORMULA 1 GULF AIR BAHRAIN GRAND PRIX (Sakhir) 12 - 14 Mar

I may place a punt.

Its either going to be Alonso or Hamilton methinks.

Alonso in that Ferrari is one to be very worried of I think. He's a complete twat, but hes a bloody good driver.

Ive just thought -

I should put a £100.00 bet on all 4 -

One of them is bound to win

So -

Alonso returns - 400

Hamilton returns - 450

Schumacher returns - 500

Button returns - 1100

So if im putting £400.00 on in total and any of those win which the chances are high, ill get my money back anyway but have a chance of making proffit.

Hmmmmm depends if those odds keep.

Hamilton to win IMO

I think button will have a strong year too due to the no refueling and his calmer driving style, which kind of leads me to believe Hamilton/Schumacher/Alonso may damage their tyres on heavy fuel loads.

i'm still backing hamilton, although as you said, button has a lovely smooth driving style whereas hamilton is aggressive and always manages to go through rear tyres like mad.

No one fancy Senna this season then? I think Schumacher will do well, the team is a brilliant formula. Id like to say I think Lotus will do well but I dont hold high hopes.

Yeh im pretty sure the odds are fixed once you place the beat, just the same if the odds were to shoot up youd still get winnings for what they were when you placed it.

Yea thats the way it works, do what you said and stick a hundred quid on them 4. Nothing to lose, just gain

I would do it if I had a spare £400 quid sitting around

Since the age of about four I was a Schumacher fan and followed his racing until retirement. I think he has a lot of wins left in him and in a year thats bound to be full of surprises, might do very well. Pre-season testing is what the odds are all about, but most teams are testing aero and fuel loads so until the season opener, I dont think its safe to call the quickest driver/car combo.

Massa will out drive Alonso in the Ferrari. Massa is calmer and by the end of the season his average will be better. Alonso if he can keep calm and drive smoothly may be in with a shot.

McLaren although quick in testing havent developed the car as much as other teams and its still very quick. I dont think their speed is considerate of fuel though and I think they may be a shock low performer. I think the end of the year will have Hamilton, Massa, Schuey and Webber at the top, in any order.

Should be a good season, lets just hope red tape and politics dont get in the way. First team bustup will be Alonso and Massa or Button and Hamilton...

If you can, and you are an F1 fan, get to Spa. Not far away, fairly inexpensive and by far the best spectator track.

Sorry for going on...im an extreme F1 fan and cant shut up once I start....rabbit rabbit rabbit

Hamilton should piss all over Button now that they're in the same car.

There's gonna be some great racing this season. If only it was ready for the HD.

FLOL. Completely forgetting that if one of the other drivers does particularly well you've just lost £400

Take Vettel for example, if he gets the right car under him and development goes well theres no reason he couldn't do extremely well this year.
