Were a few races into the season now. We've had twists and turns, different race winners and been to a variety of circuits. We can see which teams and drivers are strong and those who arent. We've seen what upgrades the teams have come up with. All of this means we can all now have a good guess at who will come out on top of the 2010 Formula One World Championship?
Been vote then discuss who you chose and why. I havent put every driver up there as most teams/drivers dont have a chance :)
And please people, keep it civil!

Vettel'll take it by a mile. Now that Red Bull are back in the EU they can actually get their updates from Milton keynes to the car - it's really just the brakes and the engine that need tweaked, although the new front wing they had at Valencia was simply orgasmic.
But I hope with all my heart that Button can take it - that would make me very, very happy.

Don't you mean Barcelona :confused:
I too voted for Vettel to take the Championship with my head, but with my heart I want Hamilton to do it.

Im a massive Vettel fan ... but for me Webber just has his head screwed on and is driving remarkably well, can see him doing it. Its between the Red Bull drivers for me.

I havea feeling it will be 1 off the Red Bull Drivers..
You look at their Pace, They Could (Arguably should) Be Running away with this Championship right now..
I would probably say Vettel although Webber is really on a Role Lately...
There are still 13 Races left and a Potential 325pts still up for Grabs (Bet you thought you'd never say that for Formula 1 :p), Even Chandok remains a Title Contender for the Time Being...
Honestly i will take anyone but Schumacher as Champ this Year.... *Gasp* Dare i say it..Even a Ferrari 0.o

This year is too early and too hard to tell. If it carrys on the way it has started its too hard to tell. I have a feeling it will be a red bull that wins. Mark Webber has a point to prove, hes one of the most experienced drivers who has had alot of bad luck, driving for williams nearly destroyed his career I believe. I always knew moving to Red bull was a good move, but was shocked when red bull suddenly started winning last year and now even more this year. But I feel Vettel will win

I think it'll be one of the Red Bull Drivers. Although I feel happy for Mark Webber who's done really well this season, I think Vettel will just sneak it. Red Bull 1-2 for me:)

I feel this year is gonna be Mark Webber's - dominated the last two race weekends, the car looks like its the one to beat and he's deserved this chance for an outright challenge.

If Mark is to do it this year you can't help but think it will be his one and only chance to grab the title. I don't think Red Bull will have this dominance of a season like this one again next year with other teams making up the ground again. Webber isn't getting any younger either so the more experienced drivers like Rosberg, Vettel & Hamilton get I really can't help but think this will be the closest he will ever get to the gold.

I really want to see Mark Webber as Champ this year. ;)
A bit of a challenge from McLaren and Rosberg along the way would make it interesting, but ultimately Mark to take it.

I'm not convinced about Webber, although its hard to deny he has had a couple of good weekends! If he is leading the championship towards the end of the season I can't see him coping too well with the pressure. I'd love to see Massa win, but deep down I know that'll never happen... Sadly I can't see him in F1 next season either. I think Alonso will improve as the season goes on, and he could well upset the Red Bull camp, and Rosberg will keep on plugging away, although I think he'll have to wait until next year to get a car capable of winning consistently.
Whatever happens, I'll be happy as long as Lewis isn't the champ at the end of the season!

Mark Webber - Driving the best his ever Driven Right now, There were those who said Vettel would run laps round him, That hasnt been the case so far..
Sebastien Vettel - Hit by abit off Bad luck so far this Season, Can't help but feel right now he could be Running away with this Championship at the Momment
Fernando Alonso - Seems to be settling in at Ferrari Nicely, Wouldnt rule him out yet, Somewhat messed up his Monaco GP with that Crash...
Felipe Massa - Somewhat Dissapointing thus Far, Full credit to the Bloke for even sitting in an F1 Car again, But i have to Wonder if it has effected him in anyway..
Jenson Button - Seems to be Settling in at Mclaren, Not sure it will be Back to back titles again though
Lewis Hamilton - I will admit it's very frustrating being a Lewis Hamilton fan sometimes, You can't help but think FFS Lewis!!, I know Spain wasnt his Fault, but his not a Rookie anymore...
Nico Rosberg - Has held his own at Mercedes just fine, wouldnt rule out a Race win before the end off the Season
Michael Schumacher - Now that the Hype has Settled, It's not the Dominant Return some Predicted, He seems to be finding his Feet again abit, But i think Title number 8 will have to wait another Season (Which im hoping wont be :p)
Robert Kubica - The suprise hit off 2010 thus far and my Driver off the Season so far, Has really impressed in a Car that wasnt expected to be up there.. After a Meh 2009 with BMW, It's good to see him showing his Talent again.
Others - Adrian Sutil and Force India have looked good, Sauber have been Dissapointing thus Far, Lotus are pretty much the Best off the N00bs, and despite being in the worse car on the Grid, Karun Chandock hasnt looked to Bad...

Agree with you Eunos on Karun Chandhok. Is would so like to see both him and Senna in a much better car to show us what they can both do in F1.
