Basically, they're calling it a 3-way horserace between Kimi, Massa and Bultardo Alpaca, with Kimi a nose ahead. Sounds about right. And the time to wager is now, cause those three are going to start running away with the season starting day 1.

Anybody with a pair of onions (obviously not me) would throw all they had and all they could borrow on a Heidfeld or Kubica to show. Maybe even a Hamilton.

Now that I mention it, I'm surprised they have a rookie fresh out of GP2 that high up the rankings, but he is in a fast car and he does have a reputation for being a stone-cold barbarian on the sweeping turns.

I tried to get some additional science off www.tradesports.com's F1 book, but apparently there are no punters yet. I like the idea of seeing what the "market" is handicapping on a given trade, even though there's virtually no valid price discovery on that site since participation is so small.
