Bur Rosebrg is bound to beat him in a race sooner rather than later. As indeed will the Ferrari's again this season at some point.

He won't win them all, IMO, but he will leave Nico trailing in his wake. The Ferrari resurgence could be the breaker for any records though....

Unlikely that Hamilton or Rosberg for that matter will go through the season without a mechanical non finish

Mercedes seemed bulletproof until Bahrain. Obviously, Hamilton will eventually lose, but the things that would happen in the early-mid season will probably belong to him before 2016. I'll love to see his expression when he surpasses his legend Senna for wins.

Up until the 2009 season - he had a pretty impressive record - hell, his debut season was one of the best in the history of the sport. Some of it is down to the machinery he had at his disposal of course - but perhaps the true test of an F1 driver is when they don't have a decent car(look at Mansell in the Lotus, Senna with Toleman in 1984 and Schumacher with the Ferrari in 1996, etc.).
I think it's likely that Rosberg will take a couple of wins - Monaco seems likely - as I think he is very good at that circuit. We can also expect the Ferraris to take some more wins - I think they'll be top dogs at Canada and maybe Austria - outpacing the Mercedes perhaps? He take some records for sure. Although, it looks quite likely that given that the Ferrari is back - Vettel is going to be notching up some impressive statistics as well! Possibly overtaking Schumi over the coming years! I still think that this is Hamilton's season - Rosberg doesn't seem to take the fight to him like last season. |

Top 2 streak continues. Anyone know that record?
All predictions bump one grand prix into the future. |
