Formula 1 Season 2016
DiCyc
Hello
What will happen this year in F1?
 
NikVis28
Hamilton wins.

Well, closer to the start of the season I'll write a preview. Pfft

Let's just hope 2016 means that FIA finally do something regarding the current state of F1. And no, racing is not the problem.

Manor will be terrible as always Pfft
No, to be serious, I'll have a gander that Ferrari closes the gap to Mercedes, Red Bull gets a little better, and the new F1 team, Haas, will be better than Mclaren Honda, but not as good as the Sauber or Toro Rosso.

My only wish is to have 4 or more different race winners, also I hope Renault turns out to be a upper field team. But that probably won't be the case.

Pretty sure they will be ahead of both - Toro Rosso will use 2015 Ferrari units, while with these pay drivers in Sauber - what you're gonna do

As a finn I hope that Räikkönen will shine and battle Vettel.

I doubt anyone (Ferrari) will have made up enough ground to match/beat the Mercedes across a whole season. So the title i feel is a forgone conclusion in that sense, just leaving us with the odd race surprise.

On the championship front i'd still always back Hamilton over Rosberg, but it should be a lot closer this season than last.

Big year at Red Bull and Torro Rosso. Verstappen and Sainz are by far the best drivers the red bull dev system has had (better than Vettel!) but they can't stay at TR too long (history says 2 years and you move on). Ricciardo and Kvyat need a big year but with a Renault engine... i expect them to crack big time in the year and Red Bull with fall apart again. And of course the engine problems.

I like the Sauber pairing of Ericsson and Nasr. Ok both are very much pay-drivers but both have shown they really can drive well at times. The car just needs to be a lot better for them to show that.

Renault/Lotus... They need to get rid of Crashtor but he's to valuable for funding. Palmer i don't know, he was good in GP2 and his few practice sessions so i have hope (nationality bias).

Haas... erm... no idea until testing.

Mclaren-Honda, again need to see testing to know more.

Just some breif thoughts, guaranteed to change a lot between now and Aus

I think you´re misjudging Saubers drivers here. Nasr had some really good junior results and Ericsson has improved a lot within the last season, though both bring that essencially bags of cash with them. Doesn´t mean they´re driving too bad.

Manor will be a lot better than the last season, but I´m not sure if they can fight against other teams yet.

Red Bull will benefit from Renault being back with an own team and more motivation & ressources to develop a better engine.

Personally I don´t see Ferrari coming closer to Mercedes, especially with that Finnish man I love so much but who is turning into a lame duck late in his career. But maybe if Vettel improves his nearly perfect Italiano they might really attack the silver arrows.

Hopefully a better season than the last one, with the two riders which I currently think are the best still in a FI (Hülkenberg) and a Haas GP (Grosjean). Hopefully one of them will replace Raikkonen next year, then it will be Ferrari with the best rider pairing and full attack on Mercedes. Somehow I´m already waiting for 2017...

The 2 drivers for Manor are Alexander Rossi and Pascal Wehrlein as far as I know, not 100% sure though.
