F1 GP Hungary: Your predictions

Budapest this weekend.. Dusty, not many overtaking opportunities and also the scene of Damon Hill's (almost) greatest race when driving for Arrows and Jenson's only ever victory was here too.

Can Lewis make it a hat-trick? Can Kovy replicate his quali form into race pace? Can Ferrari bounce back from a couple of mediocre races?

Get 'em in lads!

this has to be the hardest race to predict. Ferrari are confident they have fixed the problem that caused their loss of pace the last two races (a suspension upgrade, which would partly explain Massa's spins) However Mclaren obviously are still upgrading parts, so having to go backwards wont have done much to help Ferrari. If its going to be hot, then tyre wise ferrari will have it, if it stays cooler, Mclaren should walk it. I'm going to predict it'll be boiling hot and go:

Massa
Lewis
Kimi

Edited friday Massa and Kimi swapped.

My words not his ;)
It was an inexcusable race on his part, but the simple fact was, he just touched the throttle, and the car was backwards, that is not a case of, he was over doing the throttle pedal because it happend the moment he touched it. Which suggests to me, as bad as he was, there was something wrong with the setup somewhere.
Now Ferrari have gone to Jerez, set the car up as it was in France and piece by piece added on the parts they had used from France onwards, which is where the car started to go wrong. They found that it was the rear suspension that was causing a loss in speed and have now removed the offending pieces and at least found the car to be better balanced. Now they are having to play catch up having had to waste the last major test of the season on finding the problem. Which will mean friday practices will be spent evaluating new pieces as well as setting the cars up.

My heart say Lewis for a hat-trick, but my head says Ferrari will be back with a bang. Raikkonen needs results now if he's going to keep his title. So this week I'm going:
Raikkonen
Massa
Hamilton
