Well, how are they going to score points if they, according to you, need a gun driver?

And I tend to disagree since I really don't see them beat Renault and Honda... I think they could speak of a good season when they beat Toyota and Williams...

But weren't Hondas completely rubbish this year?

The season is only one race old... You still can't tell anything about reliability or what so ever. But they do stand a chance to beat Honda for sure... But Renault might be a bit too positive.

well, their road cars are still rubbish, so at least that hasn't changed.

If they had a better paint job they'd be fighting for constructors championships for sure.

BMW has the pace on Renault and Honda now but things can change. Honda is massively updating their car, and the Renault drivers can still catch on. If I had to stake a bet now however, it would be BMW for 3rd place.

BMW is certainly worthy of being a front runner. They just need the reliability.

BMW were 1 of 3 that really had the tyre change work in their favour, and theres no guesses who the other 2 are...

They need to work on their tactics and reliability. That stunt where they short fuelled Heidfeld and put him on soft's at the start was a gamble a lower end team would make.

I think they will finish in 3rd to be honest. The car out of the box has been fast, Kubica and Heidfeld are fast, and the strength in the development may also be there too.
