Hopefully a good one, Lewis will be confident after Bahrain which he seems to thrive on, it's hard to see past him and Rosberg for the first two spots.

The battle for 3rd and lower will be interesting, I'd like to see a strong performance from the Williams.

I'd bite your hand off if that was the case.

yaaawwnnnn....

It's becoming a little too easy to pick which car for the top 2 steps of the podium.

Mercedes
Mercedes
(and hopefully) McLaren

But at least it aint the finger!

I'd say that's not a bad prediction.

I could see another strong performance from Force India this weekend.

Williams and McLaren both seemed to have lost their pace in Bahrain, so unless they've shipped some big upgrades to China, I could see a similar order as the last race.

Close but third will be Vettel unless Teflonso gets his pony hooked up then him.

So hopefully Lewis will win again. Nico says he's going to China to win though so hopefully it'll be another interesting battle. McLaren for best of the rest I hope.

Yep. hulk for third. force India usually have a good top speed. should be impressive at this circuit.

rosberg and Hamilton have had good results at this circuit. Hopefully a good dice throughout. I don't really mind which one wins. smile

Me neither, although Hamilton has the momentum

I think it will be Hamilton then Rosberg, but if Rosberg is going to strike back after Bahrain he needs to do it now. Hamilton drew a very clear line in the sand in Bahrain by winning a race when he didn't have the quickest of the two cars.

I think it has to be this as China is a power circuit. I choose Magnussen for the 3rd spot, but no doubt a classic McLaren operational error will step in.

He may have the momentum of 2 wins but I don't think it counts for too much - it can all change in a split second.

Rosberg had the momentum going into round 2 but that didn't do him much good.

Hopefully Hamilton for the win but I'd like to see Button up there, as well as good performances from Force India and Williams, just to mix it up a bit.

Its looking like another wet qualifying session coming up.

75% chance of rain on Saturday and a slim chance <20%, on Sunday.
