Too hard to call right now and there's been a lot of technical director shifting.

 

It'd be great if the rule shift created a competitor out of the blue like the year Jenson won it....

 

The change in designs in terms of downforce, width of cars, tyres and engine will make this season extremely interesting - up to 5 seconds a lap quicker more interesting... Hopefully it will get rid of the coasting round to save fuel rather than driving performance cars as quick as possible.....

 

I think if Red Bulls are competitive they'll make a dent but also considering Bottas' previous achievements in a comparatively poor car - it will be interesting to see what he can do in a Silver Arrow.... I've not written him off just yet as a silent no.2 to Hamilton.

It's going to be interesting to see if the rule changes have closed the gap at the front. The last couple of seasons have been very poor and toward the end there was not allot of point watching, just look at the end and see if it was ham or ros that had won.

I reckon that Red Bull, Ferrari and McLaren will be more competitive this year

McLaren can't be any less competitive.

Of course not. Hopefully the new Honda engine will give their car the extra horsepower they need to catch up to the front runners.

Bernie's finally gone, but I don't hold any hope with liberty bell being any good for the sport 

Hopefully we can get some of the European circuits back now.

Be really interesting how formula 1 goes now without Bernie who was basically a dictator in the sport. F! needs the sport to be competitive with more teams up there and capable of winning races

He's more composed than Rosberg, and won't buckle under pressure, but he's a driver not a racer. He'll do well because he's got a fast car, but he won't get that little bit extra that drivers like Hamilton, Alonso, Vettel, Verstappen or Perez do. He won't eak every last drop of pace out the car like a proper racer will, he's just happy to drive round as fast as he comfortably can.

I miss the old days. I want to see the Arrows team take to the grid again.

 

Stopped watching the sport after the demise of Arrows.
