So what are your predictions?
The Miami GP last year marked the turning point for McLaren, giving Lando Norris his first GP win in what turned out to be a very succesful year for McLaren in the WCC.
With their updates they finally had the fastest car of the field.
This year, I expect McLaren to grab an easy win here. I think the track and climate suit their car.
For sure the pressure is now on Lando to perform to fight for his position in the WDC.

This is my prediction:
1. NOR
2. PIA
3. VER
4. RUS
5. LEC
6. ANT
7. HAM
8. TSU
9. ALB
10. HAD

+1 with the new threads.
Probably guessed I disagree with your prediction though

1. MAX
2. Charlie

3. Lando (rejuvenated
4. Oscar
5. Lew
6. Yuki
7. Ollie
8 and onwards wyw.

*Oh RUS DNF.

Obviously I would love to see your prediction come true

LEC drove a very good race in Jeddah. But I think it's very difficult to predict where the Ferrari is competitive and where not.
For sure it's not the car the media wanted us to believe during the winterstop when rumors went rampant.

wizardofOz · 04-22-2025, 10:50 AM

Thanks again GuidoK

I'm going with:

0. Stroll
1. Oscar
2. Max
3. Lando
4. Charles
5. Yuki
6. Alex
7. Carlos
8. Lewis
9. Pierre

GuidoK · 04-22-2025, 01:30 PM

The main thing I wonder is when we'll see a DNF between PIA and NOR.
Both drivers know this year is their biggest chance for both to ever get a WDC with the oncoming rulechange in 2026.
At some point this year papaya rules will become no rules. And for sure Max will be right there at that moment

MoeTE87 · 04-22-2025, 02:11 PM

1. Max
2. Lec
3. Pia
4. Nor
5. Rus
6. Yuki
7. Carlos
8. Kimi
9. Gas
10. Lew

Wish I was going, however, Max will have an "f you" mentality and will dominate the weekend and win the Sprint on Saturday and will go all out on Sunday to win by 2 - 5 seconds.

I also feel Lando and Oscar will duke it out and one of them will run into eachother to cause TWO DNF's for the Orange Team!

If Papaya Rules go bad this season

AmuroRay · 04-22-2025, 03:14 PM

Oscar is going to channel his inner Kimi and I think him and Max duke it out in more aggressive duels throughout the year. It will take them out of contention and keep the grid closer and provide some great racing/drama.

Can't wait.

I don't think Lando will hold back and let them have all the fun

LH44 · 04-22-2025, 03:41 PM

Max will try to pull some stupid shit again on Oscar and Oscar will punt him into a wall to insert dominance.
