The overall excitement has gotten to me as I sense the potential for the most exciting season in decades has got most everyone near breathless.
I must toot my own horn as I recently read an article by Nigel Roebuck of AutoWeek and, most of the points made were characteristically familiar to my earlier post from December 24, 2009 and most of what was said mirrored potentials that I laid out. The only difference is that AW's Roebuck has chosen Alonso as champion outright. I'm not so bold, nor do I need to be as I like to interpret potential rather than be ballsy by making startling predictions. So much changes throughout a season so I will be making adjustments as well; not to just follow trend, but to express how the potentials shift and change.
Be prepared for some startling revelations of personality during this season. I think the circumstances will push the top drivers to their absolute limit in both driving and character. In the sense of the latter, my job will be easier as I will keep you abreast of what I perceive the drivers are experiencing on emotional-motivational-personality-character levels. As for the first race, get ready for some face-palm schamozzles by front runners pushing too hard; there's a lot of tension out there!
Throughout the season be ready for some of these as possibilities:
- Schumacher dealing dirty and getting penalized for it.
- Hamilton pushing too hard and taking himself out...
- Alonso losing his cool about the performance/reliability of the Ferrari as he gets a whiff of victory.
- Slower cars knocking out front runners
- Massa going after Michael but having it work against him.
- Button becoming despondent at his seeming lack of pace and blaming car setup
- Richard Branson putting his foot in his mouth
- Force India moving forward or falling into the rear.
- Vettel possibly taking it away from everyone!
- Peter Windsor returning to TV Journalism
- Photos of Flavio Briatore in the stands at some races - and then photos of him being escorted out...
- Ross Brawn smiling during a race.
