This question can be taken in two ways:
  • Who will have the fastest car at the end of the season?
    OR
  • Who will make the most gain in lap time from Melbourne to Abu Dhabi?
I've voted for Merc and McLaren-Honda.

Is it up to us to decide how to take it? Or do we give one answer per question?

If I'm deciding, I take it as the second question (gaining most lap time) and then I'll answer McLaren-Honda (obviously) and Red Bull.
Manor could be a good shout as well, what with them still running a modified 2014 car with a 2014 PU. But then they would have to at one point introduce their 2015 car and I'm not sure that will happen - I wouldn't be surprised if at one point they decide to postpone introducing a new car until 2016.

If one of each, then Mercedes and McLaren-Honda.

I voted based on option 2, but I'll give my answers for both:

Who will have the fastest car at the end of the season?
Mercedes followed by Ferrari, as now. Not very interesting, which is why I didn't choose it for the vote ;)

Who will make the most gain in lap time from Melbourne to Abu Dhabi?
I'm going for McLaren-Honda (obviously) and a surprise candidate in Lotus. Red Bull would be the safe vote, but I'd like to believe that the Lotus will come good by season's end, and it started out of place of where it seems like it should be, so there's definite potential there.
