GP of China

With an avg speed of 210+kph to be expected for the race,my bet is on Button .
As all the drivers are new to this circuit,MS will not have any great advantage other than his Ferrari and Jean Todt.
Kimi may be fast but then the Mclaren is not reliable.

The fastest lap cud be JPM.
JPM cud also qualify at poll.

what do u all think.

I think the brilliance and experience of Michael Schumacher coupled with the reliability and pace of the Ferrari will ensure a victory for him at Shanghai.

Well, Schumi has a lot of work to do now, for him to win tommorrow! Thanks to his spin. I guess Barrichello has a better chance of winning this race. Kimi, well, if his machinery holds up, then he may have a chance.
Interesting stuff up tomm. Its an open race, it all depends on whose pit stratergy works the best.

I think it could be Barrichello this time.

Dippy · 25th September 2004, 19:13

Barichello has a good chance to win and Kimis on his tail as well. If the Mclaren lasts Kimi has a good chance.

A spin for Schumi and he has a mountain to climb I'm sure he'll start with a full fuel load from the pitlane.
Victory?? Yeah hes last but I still wont rule out a Schumi victory either

Did i hear right that JV is shifting to Sauber for 2005? If so, what is he doing at Renault for just a few races? And then what is Renault going to get as a driver for 2005?

Dippy · 25th September 2004, 22:07

Hey Ported Renault has already signed Fisichella for 2005

micheal seems to need a learners license in asia.

it was Barrichello all the way in China, he had a great race, while his teammate just having some problem one after the other everytime he made up places, something went wrong and he dropped back, another good race by Button also another 2nd place for him.
