Looks like the weather could play a part in this one.....

Can Button continue his winning streak?
Will Barri try to stick one to Button in front of the home crowd?
Will Vettel manage to keep it on the tarmac?
Could Hamilton do something special?

Personally, I'm going for a rather optimistic:

1: Button
2: Vettel
3: Hamilton

The FIA's final 2010 entry list is coming out this Friday, and barring any major developments will probably not include the remaining FOTA teams. So given the rumours that were flying about just before the start of the Turkish GP, could we see every FOTA team staging a boycott of the race?

I had thought that myself but cast the thought to the back of my mind. Unfortunately it is now moving forwards!

What kind of a grid would that leave us with?

On a fast sweeping track? That is optimistic! hehe

I'll be pleasantly surprised if he makes it into the points.

What odds on a wet GP again? If the traditional UK summer weather arrives, expect a strong drive from Hamilton in his duff McLaren. I hope his efforts are rewarded with some more points at least...

True, un-positive noises coming out of Mclaren for Silverstone - i think they may struggle if its a dry race.Germany is now there main focus. I predict Brawn 1-2 with the RedBulls 3-4.

There's no more chance of a boycott in Silverstone than there was in Turkey. Bernie has them by the balls there.

In any case they are obliged to show the world their sponsor's logos.

I can see that the entire event will be overshadowed by FOTA's exclusion from 2010 & their subesquent announcement/threat that they have a seperate series ready to go.

As for the race, another Button walk over followed by Rubens who will get past Webber on tactics who will have got past Vettel the same way.

Wow, another British GP thread! At least this one has capitals.... hehe

1. Button
2. Barry
3. Webber.

If Button doesn't win I would like Webber to win, he deserves it.
