While I think the order he named is correct for now, the order over the course of the season so far is different. I think the Ferrari and Red Bull are at least equal, the reason RB have been so good the last two races is tyres and weather. Fundamentally it is the quickest car but couldn't use it. Also I would say the Lotus has been better than Mercedes, but again the last two races have reversed it.
Alonso isn't leading due to his DRS failure and crash. Kimi is beating both Mercs because his car has been better.
See above:
I knew, sooner or later, Someone would talk sense.
Take a bow Sir.
I agree that Lotus' issues are more luck of the draw than Mercedes' technical issues. The next few races should be cool however and with conservative tyre choices I can't see them being able to use their strengths against Mercedes weaknesses. Ferrari and Red Bull are in a bit of a bubble of their own right now with Lotus struggling with what they've been given and Mercedes hampered by what they have got.
“I like taking risks, I predict an Audi will win at Le Mans.”
erm, that is sticking your neck out. You do realise that there are only 3 of them.
They have to get past 15 GTE-Am cars and 5 of them are Ferrari's.
Also, Toyota have an extra 3 litres of fuel in the their tank.
So using knowledgeable logical common sense I have conveniently ignored facts, as per instructions, and I will predict that the Le Mans 24 Hours race will be won by the winner.
"The next few races should be cool however..."
What? June, July......
No summer, well what a bummer!
Dah, dah dah, dee dum tee dum dum...
Sorry, just a bit of a 70's Punk Rock/ Stranglers relapse.
(No, I haven't touched a drop, yet.)
Lol yeah no summer in summer. Britain will be lucky to see 20+, Germany has a tendancy to be a bit dreary to. After that its Hungary which should be warm but nothing close to Bahrain warm. Then its Belgium, which will surely involve rain....
