Formula Freak has set me to thinking about the upcoming F1 season. Let's hear some predictions.
Mercedes will win the Constructors again but it will be closer. I think Ferrari wins the silver medal this year and Vettel + Kimi will combine for 5 wins. Ricciardo will get 4 wins but Red Bull will still get 3rd. Williams will get a few more podiums than last year and maybe a win or two. It will be Bottas' last year with Williams. McLaren is going to struggle again and Fernando's majestic eyebrows will be furrowed all year while he's battling Nico Hulkenberg and Checo for 5th.
Lotus is barely hanging on to solvency and they'll be awful but the best of the also rans. It's going to be a top heavy year.

I wouldn't put it past him. How many calls has he made trying to get a seat you think?

I Bottas or Massa grabbing a win this year. McLaren will get one podium due to wet race or some type of messy mixed conditions race. Red Bull will struggle with Kvyat but Ricciardo will regularly make podium. Maldonado wins the Spanish GP again.

Fernando for champion.
McLaren-Honda for constructors.

Kimi smiled, it's like groundhog day, if Kimi smiles at his car, the front end is to his liking and he will be trouble. Will Vettel be shit? Does he need a car made for him? I like Dan, I hope he does well again. When Kimi goes for good I think I'll be a Bo77as and Dan fan, they could be great rivals someday. Williams could surprise, if they got a few things right they could be quick, they were very fast in some situations last year. Will Merc win? Pretty sure. What will McLaren do, probably get some of it right and come back stronger in 2016, but who knows, they may work very hard and come Melbourne they could be in the mix. This year should be pretty fun, the new engines will be better, the teams that had trouble will be better, the Renault is improved, Lotus has a Merc engine. We'll see but I agree with your thoughts.

Agreed on about everything but Pastor winning a race. That was a freak thing. He's not a great driver, I think due to financial problems at PDVSA it'll be his last year in F1 also.
I really just don't see McLaren having much success even though I'd love to see it.

Lotus will be beating Toro Rosso, McLaren, and possibly Force India so that sits well with me.
