Wow! That is way too early for me to pick logically!

But I know how I'd like to see win!

Ok I just put in my picks (I know I can change them later though!!)

Winner: Fernando Alonso
Second: Kimi Raikkonen
Third: Giancarlo Fisichella
Fourth: Rubens Barrichello
Fifth: Mark Webber
Sixth: Nick Heidfeild
Seventh: Jacques Villeneuve
Eighth: David Coulthard
Pole: Fernando Alonso

It'll be close between Alonso and Kimi. Montoya is too hard on the car and retires. Fisichella is no match for Alonso but the Renault is so much faster than the rest. Michael goes off into the gravel frustrated at how slow the 04M is. Barrichello makes it to the finish happy to see Michael off!
Webber and Heidfeld make it but the Williams is too slow. Villeneuve makes it ahead of Coutlhard.
Both BAR grenades blow, Trulli and Ralfie are in the points at the start of the race but lose consistency !!
The 2 Jordan drivers take each other out

Later, I'm still getting over Webber's comments in todays paper

350Z · Post by **350Z** » Mon Feb 28, 2005 11:57 am

Here goes ...

Winner: Kimi Raikkonen
Second: Fernando Alonso
Third: Juan Pablo Montoya
Fourth: Jenson Button
Fifth: Michael Schumacher
Sixth: Giancarlo Fisichella
Seventh: Mark Webber
Eighth: Rubens Barrichello
Pole: Fernando Alonso

McLaren and Renault will be fast. Ferrari will struggle with the old car. Button manages to save his engine and Webber tries his best but the Williams aint fast

Hmmm... I detect a slight bias towards Mclaren. Don't let it colour your thinking too much
