I know it's far too early for predictions but testing is underway at Jerez with the first sight of most of the cars and I am getting excited already.
It's looking like it could be an interesting season from first glances, and it looks like reliability is going to be the challenge this year with the highly complex Energy Recovery Systems they now have. So far I think the recovery truck has the record for most laps of the circuit in testing.
As was predicted last year it looks like the Mercedes and Ferrari engines are in a much better state than the Renault one. That's good news for anyone that doesn't want to see another year of Red Bull domination.
The McLaren seems to be in much better shape this year, Jenson is certainly very happy with the car, and has done quite a lot of laps and set the fastest lap times, the extra torque and reduced downforce is certainly going to make the cars more of a challenge to drive this year.
Of course, we have yet to see what Adrian Newey has done with the Aerodynamics on the Red Bull and how fast that will be, assuming they ever manage to get the thing around the track under it's own steam.
My predictions, I think the title will be between Button, Alonso, and Rosberg.
