It will be increasingly difficult for podiums, as there are a lot of pretty evenly matched teams out there, even without Ferrari in the mix. Like the Red Bull situation, they need to get points and podiums as early as possible in the season, and I think that window of opportuntity is closing now. Toyota are better than anyone dared hope this year and Renault won't drop off by much, if anything. Being in the top 3 will be a major achievement for anyone this year.
