I obviously did not read your picks too carefully cause I didn't notice that. If I had read it I would have been in the bed next to JM.
Read carefully.......read carefully..............

Sorry I don't read other people's picks all that carefully. Basically just scan.

Looks like Williams is bouncing back

So we can now officially recognise and name the Webbutt syndrome!

Webbutt Syndrome: The condition of moving to or being in the wrong place at exactly the right time to achieve absolutely nuthin'

A bit early to be calling that.

During the official commentary, Murray Walker said
"A lot of people said, that once again Webber has gone to the right team at the wrong time, or the wrong team at the the wrong time, or whatever, but I am not one of them......I believe that come mid season, and I say this with responsibility, Mark will be on the podium,......not necessarily the top,......Adrian Newey is a man who......and look........red flag."

The Cardiac Team have said I can be downgraded to a general ward, now.

Glad to hear you will make a full recovery

I think though that JayVee got it right first time

Going to be a crowded podium then ..... Massa and Alonso are going to be on three spots each.

Yes another gem from Murray.

You gotta love him though.

Well, at this stage, it looks to me like,
The Ferrari is a fragile red rocket,
The McLaren seems to be a solid platform
BMW have done their aero homework
The Honda is a dog
Williams have better drivers and cars than Toyota.
The mid-field battle is going to be intense

Oh, and Hamilton is quick,
Kubica is quick
Kovi is not particularly quick.
RB looks like it has potential, same with Super Aguri.
The RB is certainly a slippery little tacka

First apologies for the scare, it was certainly not intentional. When I saw it on the email, I got shocked myself!!!

But GhoGho, 2 points are better than Zilch

Looking forward to the race. Though I am a bit worried about Massa being so far back. Looks like it will be a great year but very hard for tipping.
