F1 2009 Predictions

The new Formula One season is upon us, and it looks like it’ll be a good one. The new rules and new cars make it really difficult to predict anything, but I try to make a few predictions at the start of every season, so here goes:

  • Ferarri will win the Constructor’s championship.
  • Jenson will get some points in early races but they’ll dry up as other teams get up to speed with the new regs.
  • Max Mosely will continue to cling tenaciously to his position despite mounting opposition.
  • Mark Webber will say bad words in at least 3 post-race interviews.
  • Kimi and Felipe will tie for race wins, but Felipe will win on points.
  • Kimi will say even less than last year.
  • BMW will be the second best team.
  • Lewis and Fernando will be battling each other for most of the season.
  • The three Sebastiens will give the commentators headaches.
  • Braun will sponsor Brawn (well they should!)
