Contender Analysis.

With only 2 races gone its hard to say who is looking good and someone who is likely going to be up on the top spot of the Drivers Championship table at the end of the season. BUT its not to say that we can't see who is going well and strong in the last 2 races. 

Massa and Alonso - Two team mates who last year were the difference of night and day. Massa struggled at the start of the season while Alonso got a grip of the car and went to contend for the title. This season they both look strong although Alonso retired after contact that caused damage to the front wing resulting in no downforce and it to flip under the car restricting control. So far the team have taken 40 points with Massa's results being 4th and 5th and Alonso's result being 2nd. These two Ferrari's are looking good.


Räikkönen - A consistant driver always surprising us and racing a good solid race. 1st and 7th from a grid penalty shows that under the helmet there is a person always looking to go forward! His consistency looks like something that could disturb the top drivers at any time. 

Vettel and Webber - Now, here after all the controversy we have two very strong drivers both capable of dominating any race. A strong rivalry may stun their dominance on the grid and could stop both drivers from being within title range. For now though both of the Red Bull's look very strong. We'll see if the rivalry will puncture their chances of Winning the title. 

Rosberg - A young driver team mates with a f1 superstar. I say he's is keeping up to pace. Even better then drivers he previously didn't keep up with including his team mate. With a strong team behind him Rosberg looks like he could settle well at each race and focus on the objective to help him and his team thrive. Another driver looking very strong. 

Hamilton - A new driver to Mercedes looked to have settled well in the new team and giving them all a boost. Two good race results and strong points for the team with 5th and 3rd place. He looks happy. I think he has a strong car this yeah and with drive the living daylights out of it. He looks strong for the title. 

Sutil and di Rester - Here are two drivers who are surprising a few people with their pace. Both drivers doing well could be into for a shot at the title. With heavy competition around them, can they pull it off. I reckon they could, with very good driving and consistency points will be flooding in and taken from top drivers. Everyone would be stunned if they do and it would be a great achievement, no one else would be disappointed

Here is the Contender analysis. Hope you enjoy reading.
