US Grand Prix.

So, Alonso again, huh guys? I believe so.

Anyway, i like this track, i could say it's my favorite track. A lot of high speed and overtakes...

Re: US Grand Prix.

We'll see how it goes. Michelin may choose to go conservative with the tire compounds and may see Ferrari with an advantage since Alonso can afford to lose a couple points. Ferrari is still also good with their straightline speed, so it'll probably be a tough battle if they get their grid position and strategy right. McLaren seems to have made up some ground on the two top teams, so they may be fighting up there as well.

Re: US Grand Prix.

Alonso and Schumcher will battle it out but Alonso will take it.

Looking at the current standings it would be most likely Honda.

Re: US Grand Prix.

Schumacher looks to be the favorite for this race as the Bridgestones have the advantage at this track. I'm guessing Montoya will be on a one stop strategy to try and bring in as many points as possible. Raikkonen will probably be on a heavy fuel load as well, but not quite for a 1-stopper.

Re: US Grand Prix.

I may have to change my predictions for this race. Schumacher will most likely win but I'm not sure how the Bridgestone's will fair in the long run. Should be an interesting race.
