We know what Mercedes is like without Sir Lewis. Ferrari have WDCs and WCCs in 2017 and 2018 with VET and RBR with Max having 2020.
It's like at the time for example Massa driving with say Kimi's settings in the Ferrari,Russell would only go slower and yet with his own settings he still flew past BOT.

this year 4 teams in total will use Merc' engines.. simply 40% of the grid will use the same engine.. in 2022 Williams will have technical support as well.. for a team to beat Merc' they just need to build chassis...

almost with half of the grid, Merc' already shares its technology what else they can do.. next step d be renting their own car to teams...

My revised top three prediction list.
Constructors
1 Red Bull
2 Ferrari
3 AlphaTauri
Drivers
1 Max
2 Perez
3 Ricciardo
My prediction is 'at the time' based on who is officially designated for each team,in other words it will be a Merc turkey shoot.

Well mate ,let us say that we are hoping it ...

And what we hope even more is a close battle in the front .
MAX vs HAM would be awesome !
As I said , everything depends from the '21 HONDA PU .

1. Mclaren will beat Redbull
2. Perez will be on par with Max. 40% chance he’ll beat him.
3. Vettel will win a race.
4. Russell will be on the podium.

Let me look into my crystal ball. Yep, just what I thought...a snooze fest like last year.

Replace Bottas with Russel to save the season.
