It's the team that seemingly has everything. The tallest team principal, the most bankable driver in Hamilton and Niki Lauda, a mystical Svengali who doesn't bother to wear the team uniform. It's a team with the best engine and a massive constructor's budget. What could go wrong? Well, ask McLaren, or even better ask Red Bull or Williams how a dominant team can suddenly fall off the pace. It will happen eventually, but not this season. Mercedes will win many races with both drivers. In fact, I predict it will win Constructor's Championship, but not the driver's championship. Could miss out on that by a whisker to Sebastian Vettel in a resurgent Ferrari.
