1) Who will take pole and who will win the race?
2) Which driver will lead the WDC after Hungary?
3) How will it look at the top; domination?
4) Can Lotus get into Q2? Hockenheim was a near miss.
5) Is Chandok coming back?
6) Further punishment for Ferrari? ( Keep it short, this shan't become a rant thread ).
 
1) Who will take pole and who will win the race?

Pole on pole (i.e. Kubica); race win: the now-insufferable Seb.

2) Which driver will lead the WDC after Hungary?

Still Hamilton (very marginally).

3) How will it look at the top; domination?

No domination, the tight and twisty track should make it a bit of a mess.

4) Can Lotus get into Q2? Hockenheim was a near miss.

Only if there's two idiots from the non-new teams who bin their cars in Q1 before setting a time.

5) Is Chandok coming back?

Hopefully, but not at the expense of kicking Senna out for another race. Yamamoto is hopeless.

6) Further punishment for Ferrari? ( Keep it short, this shan't become a rant thread ).

Not now, maybe long after the season is over (if at all).

I think this track will suit Red Bulls.

2) Which driver will lead the WDC after Hungary?
Still Hamilton.

3) How will it look at the top; domination?
No.

4) Can Lotus get into Q2? Hockenheim was a near miss.
It was over 1.5 sec so the gap is still very big. The only chance for the new teams is if another Malaysia happens.

5) Is Chandok coming back?
It looks that Yamamoto will be back, but don't know for whom. And probably Klien will have his chance this season too.

6) Further punishment for Ferrari? ( Keep it short, this shan't become a rant thread ).
Not just yet, maybe later.
 
1) Who will take pole and who will win the race?
Sticking with Red Bull; Seb, most likely for both
2) Which driver will lead the WDC after Hungary?
Hamilton
3) How will it look at the top; domination?
Don't think so, the no-overtaking track does have some interesting combinations
4) Can Lotus get into Q2? Hockenheim was a near miss.
No, sadly. And they are not developing this year's car, are they?
5) Is Chandok coming back?
I'd say a 60% chance. (As accurate as weather for cast)
6) Further punishment for Ferrari? ( Keep it short, this shan't become a rant thread ).
Certainly shouldn't be any punishment for drivers; but things like excluding constructor's points from last race is possible.
 
1) Who will take pole and who will win the race?
Alonso, Webber
2) Which driver will lead the WDC after Hungary?
Hamilton
3) How will it look at the top; domination?
No, 3 teams in the podium
4) Can Lotus get into Q2? Hockenheim was a near miss.
No
5) Is Chandok coming back?
Yes, if anything to clean around the pits. HRT can't afford cleaners.
6) Further punishment for Ferrari?
As much as McLaren got at Monaco 2007: none.
 
1) Who will take pole and who will win the race?
Hamilton/Hamilton
2) Which driver will lead the WDC after Hungary?
Hamilton
3) How will it look at the top; domination?
I feel it could, i think it will either be a Mclaren Sweep or like it was said before, three teams
4) Can Lotus get into Q2? Hockenheim was a near miss.
Yes, i think they have it. if not Hungary then soon
5) Is Chandok coming back?
Was he ever here?
6) Further punishment for Ferrari? ( Keep it short, this shan't become a rant thread ).
i sure hope so. i felt cheated. i, like just about everyone else, saw a repeat of the red bull thing comming! i think the stewards should send them out on the track alone and make them crash into eachother
 
1) Who will take pole and who will win the race?
Alonso-Massa for both.

2) Which driver will lead the WDC after Hungary?
Hamilton-no other possibility, although I'd like to be proven wrong.

3) How will it look at the top; domination?
I do hope for a Germany repeat...

4) Can Lotus get into Q2? Hockenheim was a near miss.
There is a chance

5) Is Chandok coming back?
Dunno why I asked this, I don't even care :lol:

6) Further punishment for Ferrari? ( Keep it short, this shan't become a rant thread ).
Probably not, but god knows what crap might come out of this..
 
Might be a nice guy and all, but I just...can't be bothered..Not wanting to insult anyone ofc, he just seems too much of a market move and dummy driver to me.
 
i felt lotus had a chance last week. i was expecting it. i suspected that Virgin would do the best off all the new kids before the season started but then lotus now looks the best. it would be very cool to see them make Q2
 
1) Who will take pole and who will win the race? Webber, A RB driver (or fingers crossed - Button or Hamilton)
2) Which driver will lead the WDC after Hungary? Hamilton
3) How will it look at the top; domination? The usual suspects, car should mean less on this track so hopefully McLaren will be back at it
4) Can Lotus get into Q2? Hockenheim was a near miss No
5) Is Chandok coming back? Sure
6) Further punishment for Ferrari? (Keep it short, this shan't become a rant thread) Hope so
 
1) Who will take pole and who will win the race?
Alonso,Alonso
2) Which driver will lead the WDC after Hungary?
Hamilton
3) How will it look at the top; domination?
Pretty close between Ferrari, Red Bull and Mclaren if they manage to sort out their blown diffuser.
4) Can Lotus get into Q2? Hockenheim was a near miss.
It would be great, Kovalainen picked up a win here in 2008 so he should do well but who knows.
5) Is Chandok coming back?
.....^
6) Further punishment for Ferrari? ( Keep it short, this shan't become a rant thread ).
I think they should 100,000 is nothing when your spending 270million (correct me if Im wrong) a year.

Unfortunatly for the Red Bulls I think all the other drivers in the big teams have shown they can really peform on this track judging from previous years, Hamilton sailed to victory last year, Massa was awesome in 2008 until his ferrari stopped working and both Alonso and Button got their first wins here.

1) Who will take pole and who will win the race?
Webber or Vettal
2) Which driver will lead the WDC after Hungary?
Probably still Lewis
3) How will it look at the top; domination?
Hopefully not, its no fun when its decided before the last race
4) Can Lotus get into Q2? Hockenheim was a near miss.
Yes! - will be great to see a new team moving away from the back of the grid
5) Is Chandok coming back?
Yes as his replacement isn't doing much better
6) Further punishment for Ferrari? ( Keep it short, this shan't become a rant thread ).
Probably not
 
1) Who will take pole and who will win the race?
Pole: Vettel (again!) Win: Hamilton

2) Which driver will lead the WDC after Hungary?
Lewis Hamilton

3) How will it look at the top; domination?
I predict both drivers from either Red Bull or McLaren will be on the podium. The other driver will also come from one of those teams, depending on which team has it's drivers on the pod....now I'm getting confused. derp.. Okay....Alonso on the podium with either one of Webber, Vettel, Hamilton or Button.

4) Can Lotus get into Q2? Hockenheim was a near miss.
They're certainly getting bloody close, I wouldn't be surprised if they make it, but equally I also won't be surprised if they miss out. Let's put it that way. Anyway: GOOOO HEIKKI!!! :dance:

5) Is Chandok coming back?
Unless Yammerz (yes, that's my nick for him, lol) keeps up with monumental stuff-ups, no.

6) Further punishment for Ferrari?
In short (very short). Nope.

YAMAMOTO ISN'T LAST! Stop the press, this is major!
 
Kovalainen was just testing the Lotus new concept of a car with 3 wheels, that's the only reason. :D
