With the start of the 2008 F1 season just hours away, time to post some predictions:

• Kimi Räikkönen will win a second world drivers' championship, with Felipe Massa second, Heikki Kovalainen third, and Lewis Hamilton fourth.
• Sébastien Bourdais will be the most successful rookie.
• Ferrari will win the constructors' championship, with McLaren second, and BMW third.
• Ferrari and McLaren will continue to absolutely dominate, and will be massively clear of third place in the constructors' championship.
• Despite Ferrari and McLaren being comparatively close, Ferrari will still manage to get a fair lead from McLaren and win the constructors' championship at, at the very latest, the third last race (at Fuji).
• BMW, despite finishing third in the constructors' championship, will fail to win a race.
• The naïveté of Jenson Button buying himself out of his Williams' contract will continue with Williams outdoing Honda again.
