It's not long since last season finished, but thoughts are already turned to the new season. Unfortunately it seems the opening race is set to already come a cropper due to Covid, with the Australian GP likely to be postponed until some time later in the season:

Not sure when they would fit it in, as the season is gonna be pretty packed with 22 other races on the schedule.
Pre-season test is currently set for March 2-4. Will be interesting to see how/when car launches are done this year, as there will be a lot carried over from last year, and given all the restrictions in place.
Also whilst it seems likely that the Drivers' championship fight will largely be as limp as this year, the Redbull/Perez combination might make the Constructors' fight a little more interesting, and the midfiled battle should be good in both championships.
Some lad called Tommo, who seems quite popular on the yubtubs has made his predictions here:
He had some pretty wild predictions last year. This years are a bit more sensible, but still not sure on the logic behind some of them! Still, some interesting takes in there. Personally I think Max can take the fight to Bottas and come runner-up in the WDC. Would be nice to see Perez push Valteri as well, and interesting how the new drivers, especially Vettel and Ricciardo do at their new teams. If Seb gets back to the form he showed in his younger years he might suddenly be back challenging for podiums if FI/RP/AM can keep progressing with the pink Mercedes.
Anyways, what are you lots' predictions. hopes and dreams for the upcoming season?

Fair enough if his constant winning bores you, that is understandable - I hated Schumacher for the same reason when I was a child - but why not just say that instead of coming in and just slagging him off? Comes across like you have a personal agenda against him, which suggests some other reason. That's the sad and pathetic behaviour. This thread is for discussing the upcoming season, not for idiots to come and have a pop at Hamilton, so if you have nothing constructive to add it is you who should go away.
