If we win again this year, are we the Mercedes of the Top Three Championship?

Dibs on Lewis.

Why, oh why, do I keep believing Max can do anything about the inevitable Mercedes 1-2.... x( Funnily enough, I thought I had predicted LH - VB - MV, and spent the last ten laps willing Bottas on in the hope that he got past Max to secure a perfect podium. So it was a nice surprise to come on here ...

Robert Shwartzman is looking very impressive in F2. Not just in terms of speed, but he's also showing real calmness and maturity in the car. Surely he'll be in the Alfa Romeo next year? It's definitely looking that way, although still a long way to go. What would be interesting is who takes the oth...

Williams are retaining George Russell (contracted until the end of '21) and Latifi (believed to have a contract to the end of '22) for next season.

If Checo & Vettel could be together as a lineup, it would a powerful lineup. You have to wonder how much money Lawrence is prepared to continue to spend on his son, to keep Lance for Perez is a poor business venture when you factor in the lost revenue from Perez and reduced WCC points. As Lawrence ...

Vettel to Racing Point is a rumour that is really gaining traction. Big shame for Perez if so. If anyone deserves a run in a good car it's him. Honestly, in 2021, I'd rather see Perez in a good car than Vettel. About the only positive I can see for Sergio is that there are still seats available. Ha...

The Austrian vote has been counted and the results are below. Generally it was pretty lopsided, with no fewer than seven drivers failing to register more than a single vote. However, it was relatively close at both Red Bull and Alfa Romeo, with Max and Kimi facing a bit of a fight before continuing ...

I really, really, really don't get it from Alonso's perspective. He quit the first time round because he didn't want to roll around in midfield.... and he's coming back to join a team that is behind the team he left in the midfield pecking order. I guess this means Vettel's race is run in F1, unles...

I went with: Bottas - qualified ahead (albeit that might've been influenced by his excursion onto the grass) and drove a faultless race, absorbing plenty of pressure and restarts without buckling. Leclerc - not really a contest here, although seeing the onboard footage from Seb's car doing the round...

First off, I hope everyone is well and doing okay in these bizarre times. And for anyone who has lost someone they cared about, my thoughts are with you. I can't say I expected to be doing the first of these threads in July but there we go! This is always the easiest one of the year as there aren't ...

Well on the plus side, the fact that we've got another Austrian GP - and can use this weekend's race to see where everyone stands - means we should all be bagging perfect podiums to make up for it, right?!

If I were advising Vettel, I would've said to go to McLaren. Sign a two year contract, accepting 2021 would be a transitional year but then hoping to be at the front for 2022. If it works out, fantastic, you're fighting for the WDC and rebuilding your reputation. If McLaren can't make it to the fron...

If he isn't stupid with his financial demands, it'll be Ricciardo. Somewhat lost in all this is it's widely reported that Ferrari offered Seb an extension on the same terms as Leclerc. So it's not like they're saying they want a number two driver; they just didn't want to pay Leclerc's partner (tons...

Just a thought but depending on what happens with the Coronavirus outbreak - and I'm speaking purely in terms of the F1 records he is chasing - Lewis might actually stand to benefit from it. Liberty and the FIA are still doing their best to salvage the 2020 season and, at last count, were looking at...

So, less than two weeks away from (hopefully) the first race of the 2020 season, we come to our final TMW prediction thread: Mercedes.

As has been said, Albon's the only one with a realistic chance. But even if Red Bull are there or thereabouts with Mercedes, he would need a) a track that suits Red Bull more than Mercedes to help compensate for the fact that he'll be half a second down on Hamilton and b) Max Verstappen to DNF. But ...

I generally cringe at the 'Ferrari International Assistance' comments because, most of the time, it just isn't true.

Into the final two predictions we go and while one of them is probably going to be very lopsided, if our penultimate TMW prediction thread is as closely fought as last year's TMW was then it could be very competitive indeed.
