Since December you had opportunity to make your prediction for the 2008 Champion and to get a chance for 25 bonus points. The voting is now over. However, as I am in Australia at the moment, in case you are in a time zone that still reads March 13, I will still accept the entry. To see the current status click here and check the comments.

Hi Wolf!!
I’ve been in Ukraine for the last week, wedding from some friends Well, I hope my prediction isn’t too late for the Australian Gp, round 1 of the season.
Here I go!!
Pole position to: K. Raikkonen – Ferrari
Fastest lap to: K. Raikkonen – Ferrari
1st place K. Raikkonen – Ferrari
2nd place : N. Heidfield – BMW Sauber
3rd place: L. Hamilton – McLaren Mercedes
4th place: H. Kovalainen -McLaren Mercedes
5th place: R. Kubica -BMW Sauber
6th place: N. Rosberg – Williams Toyota
7th place: F. Alonso – Renault
8th place: M. Webber – RedBull Renault
This prediction is about a lot of gambling, nothing about the team or drivers which I support, hope luckly there will be Williams getting some more points there. Anyway, the big technical changels and driver movements makes me annoying about where is Renault. And I believe in romours about BMW, there is something hidden when they’ve been on track so full of fuel.
Here goes then:-
Pole: Hamilton – McLaren
Fastest Lap: Kovalainen – McLaren
1st place: Hamilton – McLaren
2nd place: Raikkonen -Ferrari
3rd place: Massa – Ferrari
4th place: Kovalainen – McLaren
5th place: Kubica – BMW
6th place: Heidfeld – BMW
7th place: Alonso – Renault
8th place: Rosberg – Williams
Pretty much my prediction for the final year’s points positions.
Good luck everyone.

If I am counting well, we have 6 correct pole position predictions
Yes I counted 6
Igi, Klokan, Stew, Mcw3, Steve Robertson and myself. Theres a lot of predictions will be a lot of work counting them all. Hope you have help to do that Wolf.
im telling you if kimis car didnt break he would be 1st in all 3 categories hahaha i predict he will finish 4th now and still hvae fastest lap. i know its too late to get points for last prediction but im just throwing it out there
Oooh should be entertaining with no traction control. I predict 5 cars to run of the course within 18 laps. lol And 2 to bugger up the start.
