Formula 1 grand prix races continue, this time in China at Shanghai International Circuit. Without any doubt we are watching one of the most exciting Formula 1 championship of the last years as 7 drivers are within a 10 points margin after three races and given the fact that the winner gets 25 points instead of 10 it is easy to understand that the battle will continue for many races to come.

Red Bull is performing better than anyone and their latest result where they managed to finish in 1-2 spots in Malaysia is the leaving proof for that. However, it is the two Ferrari’s drivers who top the standings as Massa is first with 39 points and Alonso is second with 37, sharing the spot with Red Bull’s driver, Sebastian Vettel.

McLaren, Mercedes and lately Renault follow behind while from the rest, the most notable is without any doubt Force India. McLaren’s Hamilton is expecting his team to cover the lost ground quickly as he strongly believes that they do have the power to be this year’s winners.

As the teams landed in China they encounter a completely different environment than Malaysia. The temperature in Shanghai is currently below 10 degrees Celsius while rain is expected at Sunday morning. The race is scheduled for 08:00 GMT at Sunday 18th of April and the qualification session (Saturday 07:00 GMT) will determine a lot as Ferrari and McLaren have clear difficulties to write down good times in bad weather conditions (see Malaysia).

Although it is too early to predict the winner the fact is that Red Bull is a step ahead of all the others. Their last performance in Malaysia was fantastic and they do have the power to repeat it here in Shanghai. We shouldn’t forget that Vettel and Webber made the 1-2 last year in China while Jenson Button was third. However, as always, the weather conditions will play a determine factor both in qualifying session as in the race itself.
