Alas, no USF-1 this year. But The Stig returning on a 3 year contract with the now returning manufacturer Mercedes. And the new restriction on no in-race refueling. Couple that with the largest number of competitive drivers for a single season and F-1 will certainly be incredibly exciting to watch this year. I hate to say it but I see Ferrarri having a powerful year. I think Alonso+Ferrarri is a deadly combo. Especially with Massa returning for backup. I'm very interested to see how long it takes Schumacher to get back up to speed, even though he did start and finish in 6th place, an accomplishment not easily sneered at after being out of an F-1 ride for 3 years with all that has changed since then. Definitely the season to watch, especially if you've never been interested in F-1. It may change your mind.
