Dear Heretic, thanks for your prediction. I agree with your comments on the new rule changes even if I didn't agree with your opinion on last year and feel the ones who reserved a chance for last years changes were proven right. 
This year finally will see the end of competitive qualifying and there is no benefit at all to be expected from the tyre choice on Saturday morning or the one engine rule. 
Regarding the favourites for the season it seems very tight from the start and that means bar one thing - Michael wont be beaten and with his precision and sensational instinct to take any advantage and to not give anything away he will be the one with the best overall result. Other no-nerve types to follow him will be Kimi and Fernando. 
I would rather expect an upset from Rubens than from the Williamses, they will traditionally lose out on their too balanced couple of drivers. On the other hand, if there is a revolutionary car it has to be the Williams - but they will need a decent advantage to find either Ralf or Juan Pablo as WC.
 One thing I would not hope is a lacklustre performance like last year by Bridgestone, may they not give away more than .2sec to the french rubber.... 
Finally you seem to underestimate Ford and Nick (didn't he look at least as good as Kimi at Sauber?) but its up to them to prove you wrong. Cheers, Tomas - Czech Republic (Reference Heretic 6-1 - Another Year for the Prancing Horse ?)

The Heretic replies:

Tomas,

I always enjoy getting mail from you.

Your views are valid and I cannot argue with them with the exception of Ford. A judgement call on Nick is too hard to make as I do not believe that he has a snowballs hope in that car, so we will not know how good he is until he gets a decent drive, if ever.
