    I haven't watched F1 since Schmacher left, so it would be a very interesting season. I feel it is quite disrespectful for him though to work and become a sort of ambassador figure for Ferrari, yet drive for a rival team.

    Also with the new rules, it might not favour Hamilton's or Schmacher's racing style. Possibly another Button win? -ohmy

    I don't see Button repeating. I think Vettel will take it this year. In any event, it will be an interesting season. I can't wait!!!

    Agree on the Button part, disagree on Vettel. I reckon Vettel will be thereabouts but I honestly think Lewis will be reclaiming the title this year. He's going to wipe the floor with Button having the McLaren team experience and loyalty advantage and with the car suited to Lewis' ability, he can maximise it while Button will have some getting used to and adaptation early on.

    Don't think Schumacher or Rosberg will pose a big enough threat as they're in a new team/rejoining so they will take some getting used to.

    This draws possibilities - Massa, Hamilton, Vettel, and Alonso. Alonso's driving style suits the Ferrari so he should fit in quite easily.

    Good to see Kobayashi in a race seat, reppin' Asians :)

    Vettel will become champion only if his team is competitive again o he joins other established competitive team

    Exactly. Red Bull are still supplied with Renault engines. Last year they could have won it, but it was because of Renault's unreliability which played a part in some races with a few blowups. Yes it is as powerful as the Mercedes engine (the most powerful in F1 according to latest research) but it lacks the reliability. Ferrari and McLaren have the upper hand in terms of tacticians, while Mercedes themselves have Brawn. RBR don't really have anyone who stands out who can help Vettel to championship wins.
