I'll go for the kill, and probably fail hilariously, with my three out by lap 4, or if I'm lucky, the first pit stops...


Here goes - none of this namby-pamby waiting for Friday practice! ;D

1. Button. Yes, Jenson Button
2. Kubica
3. Raikonnen.

All carefully considered choices. Carefully considered for at least 20 seconds! :)

William Hill now have Button 3/1 favourite - covering their backs against the occasional punter if I've ever seen it!

Nakajima or Rosberg could be good outside bets at 100/1 and 50/1. :-?

well I dont blame them but after the last tests where Renault matched and beat BGP and williams as well, I think things are going to be a little more complicated than the sudden speed of bgp suggests.
I'm not going to bet against Ferrari/ BMW or Mclaren just yet.

I think I will wait for some practice times first. There is way too much "new" this year to even come close to Charlie's madness bravery ;D, though if Brawn is as good as they say it is..........
