Williams has Problems
Sauber and Red Bull MAY do very well
Ferrari Typical Ferrari, but TIRES
Toyota bad

I think the BAR fans are being a little unrealistic. They just don't simply have the pace yet. I expect them to finish midpack at best. Sato has looked awful during the winter and practice. I would give Davidson a shot at driving if Sato doesn't get on track, although Honda politics will probably prohibit that from ever happening.
At lease BAR is running Michelin rubber which seems to have a huge advantage over the Bridgestones so far. I expect the Japanese tire company to get their act together by the 2nd or third race. Most of these teams have no idea how the tires will fare in this race. Should be fun to watch though!

So i guess you guys who voted for Renault were right. BAR was way off pace. Atleast they ducked into the pits at the end of the race. Will this mean they can get a new engine for Malaysia?

Anybody else think RedBull is cheating?
How are they basically using last year's Jag and all of a sudden able to run in the top 5 all race with almost no cars retiring? If you watched early in the race DC in front of MW... the RedBull was just eating up the Williams in steady state cornering.
BTW, most boring race I've watched ever.
Let's hope that race was an aberation for lots of reasons, not least of which is BAR with no points.

I'll continue to root for Sato. It builds character to watch your man lose over and over and over
I love how he seems to be unaware that he actually has limits.
