Unless Kimi decides to take revenge for Lewis’s Montreal kamikaze, in exact same fashion… Kubika won’t win

Agreed on all counts.

Personally, I think Hamilton will do the honours. *But* I am tipping a race between he and Kubica for the chequered flag, with Alonso bringing up the rear.

I think multiple SC’s are a definite possibility, and thus an unlikely winner is also a definite possibility.

BMW could capitalise. Though “Robert Kubica the best outside bet?” – I would probably have said that anyway.
A real outside bet would be a Toyota

I agree Keith,I think Kubica will do well at Valencia.I also think that Hamilton will do well there too.Both of them like street circuits.From there I couldn’t begin to predict the rest of the field,it is anyone’s race.

I’m sure Heikki’s still riding high after his maiden win, maybe he’ll be uber-hungry for more.

I would love BMW to spring another surprise though

For an outside bet, I think it’s between Kubica and Alonso.

For a ridiculous outside bet, I’ll go for Sebastian Vettel. Granted, he’s not quite up there with the Red Bull team, but Vettel has done well at the slippery street tracks this year. (If you count Canada as a street circuit)

Alex – not sure I agree Alonso did that well at Catalunya. He qualified well, yes, but he was very light on fuel. He spun on the formation lap and fell back at the start, and then retired. I still think his Melbourne drive was his best this year.

Cracking avatar by the way!
