What are your first predictions for the Turkish GP weekend? Well its going to be mclaren Vs Ferrari again obviously although BMW are going to be strong around this type of track as well, in fact the next three tracks will suit them really well and I think you will see them pretty close to the top 2 despite the fact that acheiving a big result in the race will be difficult. Everyone says this is a Ferrari track but I expect Mclaren to be with Ferrari in qualifying in the race mclaren won't have to use soft tyres which is where they have been weaker than Ferrari, on the medium and hard tyres they are more on terms with Ferrari so it will be close in the race too. Driver wise all 4 of the top drivers will be fast around here, Alonso was brilliant here last season, Hamilton did a great race in GP2, Massa won his first ever race here and Raikkonen was extremely fast in 2005 but crashed out last year. So it will be interesting to see which of these drivers comes out on top here, its going to be very close. |

Massa will win with Kimi and the McLaren's battling it out for 2nd, 3rd and 4th I suspect. Heidfeld and Kubica will take 5th and 6th and the Renaults will take the final points.

As usual i think Kimi will walk it , with the two Mclarens battling for second. I think it will be a ferrari 1-2 but Massa has certainly lost some form recently, he can overtake like he showed at Silverstone but i doubt he can stay away from making mistakes in this pressurized atmosphere this weekend.Behind them the usual, BMW will drive about a couple of tenths quicker than toyota,williams and renault. |
