Winner: Fernando Alonso - The competition will fade!
Second: Juan Pablo Montoya - Won't crash out twice in a row and new engine helps
Third: Felipe Massa - I am taking a risk with this one but I need to continue moving up the rankings
Fourth: Giancarlo Fisichella - More powerful engine doesn't help
Fifth: Jenson Button - Starts well but goes backwards as usual
Sixth: Nico Rosberg - Good driver, familiar track,
Seventh: Jarno Trulli - His luck should turn
Eighth: Jacques Villeneuve - Have to back him although his engine may fail him!
Pole: Fernando Alonso - Gets it perfectly this time
T-K, what luck has Alonso inherited ? In Melbourne he was worst affected by the safety car, in Malaysia he had twice as much fuel as the rest and in Bahrain he fought Michael and beat him. Where is the luck please ? Or does he have to spin warming his tyres, lockup and flat spot his tyres or just put it into the wall then you'd call him unlucky

I'm back and yes supporting Alonso "The Cute" in the Ferrari!
Hi Mates: these are picks for the next THREE races, so they're not very exciting. I'm going to be out of touch for a few weeks.
Pole: Kimi --he likes the new format better than Fernando
1. Fernando --he'll pass Kimi on the first lap and never give him a chance after
2. Kimi-- he's fast, but not lucky
3. G.F. --he has a car that any of my other picks would put on the top step
4. Michael --he still has his pride and he's lucky, too
5. JPM --he has a good car, too
6. F.Massa --never bet against a Ferrari in the points
7. Nico --if he get's lucky, he'll go higher than seventh
8. Ol Jense --the Honda is a great engine; now if he can just go FOREWARD
cheers and good racing,
jim
My Racing Gods: Fangio, Vukovich; Senna & Mears --all racers all the time; graceful winners & generous in defeat, but never giving up!!
