It will be very interesting to see if RBR can minimize their DNF's and score some more points. They have a great team and I wonder if the Aston Martin partnership will aid in growing the team. They might start using Aston Martin engine in the near future?
I am glad that McLaren made the jump from Honda to Renault engines. I am sure this will boost their car a lot, but I think they will be good contenders for third position against the likes of RBR and the very reliable Force India.
You can see that Alonso is hungry to race and win, looking at his WEC & F1 racing schedule! Do you think he is prepping to leave F1?
