Yeh the stewards seemed a little better towards the end of the season after that raft of criticism they received, all bar Japan (Bourdais/Massa).

Top five predictions from a soothsayer...

* Mark "Potsie" Webber will score podiums in 2009 (possibly as many as 4)
* Fernando Alonso will be WDC
* Ferrari will be WCC.
* 10 different drivers will win races
* Force India will end the season point-less.

parkingjedi should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
1. Front wings will be smashed constantly.
2. Webber will be as mediocre as ever and full of excuses.
3. Panasonic will drop Toyota.
4. BrawnGP will be a competetive mid fielder.
5. Lewis and Fernando will tussle it out for the title. Kimi third.

Satorian has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Okay then, in order of likeliness:

1. Kubica WDC
2. BMW WCC, also most reliable team
3. Heidfeld coming third in WDC
4. Hamilton second in WDC
4. Vettel regular contender for race wins
5. Bourdais showing surprising pace and mingling with the top team's second drivers
6. Alonso showing flashes of his brilliance but hampered by the Renault
7. Nico Rosberg not achieving anything in the Williams
8. Force India still slow
9. Honda surprising regular in the top half of the field
10. Toyota falling into uninspiring mediocrity
(11. Some team axing one of their drivers and recruiting Hülkenberg)

I can only predict that:

It will rain during at least one of the races.
Honda will not start a F1 car GP during the 2009 season.
Force India will not win a championship.
The Ferrari's will be mostly red.
Max Mosley will receive some flak at some point during the season.

1) BrawnGP will pick up a fastest lap twice this season.
2) Williams will beat Red Bull Racing in the WCC.
3) Mark Webber will be released from Red Bull Racing this year.
4) Mark Webber will win his first GP.
5) Massa to be WDC.

3. Mark Webber will get his first victory.

2 out of 5!

How did you fare? I must say, my final suggestion (though technically correct) looks hilarious in view of what happened.

4. I will make the neighbour complain at least once for jumping up and down / shouting at someone to drive faster WRONG - he moved out early in the season and the place is still empty! I cannot confirm or deny I am the reason for the leaving
5. We loose at least 4 nose cones on the first lap of the Oz GP Can't remember but think I was WRONG

Didn't do very well - nevermind always 2010!

Webber will be humiliated by Vettel - So many people thought this and some people may argue it was true but it isnt
Button will become a co-commentator with BBC as he cant find a drive - How little faith i had in Ross Brawn and Honda.
Piquet will be gone before Silverstone - I was only 2 races and i think it would've been earlier if it wasn't for the threat of crashgate.
Didnt do massively well really .

How Kimi ran Lewis close was not exactly how I imagined.
I thought KR would run LH close for the WDC.
But...Lewis 5th on 49pts and KR 6th on 48pts is pretty close but I can't really claim it

2010 predictions could be pretty difficult
