Hello Fellow Not606'ers, Another Classic, This is becoming a habbit... And So is Vettel winning Grand Prixs. The Red bulls Looked Top Once again but there was promise from Ferrari with Alosno Matching the pace and not far behind. They look to be bringing updates and they also say in F1 that a home GP brings a few tenths. Mercedes also look to have good 1 lap pace but the race needs some working on. Mclaren didnt look like matching Red Bull like they did in China but Im sure they shouldnt be ruled out. Barcelona is a track that every driver knows like the back of their hand so who will triumph this time round. The Turkish GP winner was Sebastian Vettel and our 14 Forum winners are: AG BLS El_Bando DH Canary Jose Lorca Manny Mendipper Moltisanti Nick Sea-Man Silver Arrow Sporty Dan Tomcat606 West Coast Boogaloo Link: http://www.not606.com/showthread.php/41480-The-Official-Not606-Turkish-GP-Predicted-Winner The Standings are: AG 3 Pts DH Canary 3 Pts moltisanti 3 pts sportydan 3 Pts SaintsFTW 2 Pts El_Bando 2 Pts Jose Lorca 2 Pts Nick 2 Pts Silver Arrow 2 Pts Alex 1 Pts Cosicave 1 Pts EastActonRanger 1 Pts Fred 1 Pts Irish Green 1 Pts Jonnyaiston 1 Pts Bergkamp a DM 1 Pts Champ Kind: Sports 1 Pts F1 Saint 1 Pts Il Consigliere 1 Pts Tiger Reece 1 Pts BLS 1 Pts Manny 1 Pts Mendipper 1 Pts Sea-Man 1 Pts Tomcat606 1 Pts West Coast Boogaloo 1 Pts JerseyMackem 0 Pts (Special Mention) LewisWDC -1 Pts Good Luck for the next Race and lets hope we have another great race especially as Barcelona has been boring the last few years.

Going for Alonso, he is on his home track, Ferrari have got big updates. However I am still expecting Vettel to win, just hope he does not so the championship does not get boring. I think that once/IF other teams can catch up with the Red Bull then Vettel will not be as dominent and we will be able to see his true quality.
I completely forgot about all these prediction things until Friday morning, when it was too late, so I'm getting my vote in now. I think Webber's due one. I thought that for Turkey, too, and on Friday it looked like a possibility. Sadly, qualifying disabused me of any hope I had for that race. But it springs eternal and I fancy he's trending upwards at the moment.
I think either RB. Webber was dominant last year, Vettel even came 3rd behind Alonso. If they have the same cars as Turkey, I would say Alonso but Im not voting yet. But it will most likely be Vettel
Tag: "el bando the mod cheats" Thats why I voted button in china, Dammit Jenson you were supposed to play your part in this!!! I even put lemonade in Webbers car during Qualifying!!.....
Its got to be Sebasitian. Whoever he is? Short of a car issue or driver error, I don't think anyone else can touch him, even Webber is 3-4 tenths off in quali, thats not the sort of margin you can make overnight.
I just really see Alonso taking it to vettel in Spain. 2 weeks away....KERS 100%sorted for Red Bull? Ferrari issues sorted? with more updates. I'm tempted for Vettel again, but major upgrades from Ferrari and Mercedes could surprise them.
This season can only go one of two ways i think. Vettel will win the title, but will he do it in 2009 Button style. or 2004 Schumacher Style. He will win this race regardless.
Hamilton for me(bias as fan), as for the title I just feel that he is being underated in terms of pace and real chance for victories and the title, but you wait and see when he walks away from Interlagos as a Double World Champ.... ANYWAY going back on topic... I am almost sure that every team will be bringing(or hoping) to bring at least half a second as this is the real start to the european season. I wonder if Jose could post some of the updates the teams will bring(if he can find them) Cheers if you can Jose. As for Alonso... Home race.... increasing pace..... more updates coming in Spain..... Race victory..... Could well happen.
Vettel again for me, would love to see Alonso win but the Red Bulls are winning with any amount in hand.
As AG has pointed out, this track is Red Bull territory. I can't see anything other than a Red Bull pole - and by a bigger margin than what was seen at Turkey. Expect a 0.5 second gap at Turkey to become almost a second in Barcelona
