kickstart should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I would assume that with all the hype about GP2 that we would be likely to see full grids for the first season or two at least.
From speaking to a friend involved in one of the teams that hopes to run in GP2 next year it seems apparent that a large number of teams are interested. However no-one is very sure how many drivers have full budgets for next season yet.Given the way the payments for the cars are to be made (eg the date for 1st payment) I think that we will only have a clear picture once cheques are actually written and cashed, as there is bound to be a reserve list of teams if the accepted teams cannot raise the cash.
My guess for drivers will be:

Piquet (only Junior)
Carroll
Stoddart
Lauda
Rosberg
Viso
I also think that we may also see Scott Mansell driving for someone.
