I think we'll see a frustrated Verstappen. Every year that he is in a car not fit for titles is a title lost, imo. He's rightly impatient for success.
I don't think Hamilton's head will be in the right place for a full season. So much intensity the last couple of years, he may take his foot off the gas at some point.
Sadly I see Mercedes starting the season with a big performance gap over the rest of the field but I hope I'm wrong or I hope they have reliability issues to offset it. Fancy Bottas to continue improving and put in a title challenge to Hamilton with Vettel. I just can't see the Red Bull's holding a title challenge even though they have the fastest combined pairing.
Toro Rosso with the Honda engine will be intriguing and McLaren look like they could be onto another disaster in reliability - even though their chassis has always been (allegedly) fast.
Just saw the practice session times. Looks like it will be Mercedes v Ferrari with Verstappen dragging the Red Bull into the mix. Hamilton, Vettel, Bottas and Verstappen could all challenge this year.
