Well, I've already stated my prediction for constructors :-

McLaren
Ferrari
Red Bull
Mercedes Grand Prix AKA Brawn
Williams

As for the Drivers :-

Hamilton
Alonso
Button
Massa
Vettel

Lets have a post with the Constructors and Drivers results. Not sure how to score it, may be 5 points for correct position and -1 for each position above/below predicted position :scratch:

(I'm too tired to work out whether that works correctly - over to you Hanky :thumbright: )

No, he's English. If he was Scottish or Welsh or from NI he would be British :lol:

As far as I'm aware the closest to Scottish F1 driver at the moment is Paul di Resta (a great British name :lol: ) who is a test driver with Force India. He is cousin of Dario Franchitti who is IndyCar Champion
You'll be saying Andy Murray's English next. :roll:
