Drivers: Nick Heidfeld (Germany), Robert Kubica (Poland)

Engine: BMW

2006 Championship position: 5th

Ferrari's Felipe Massa believes that BMW are one his team's strongest challengers for the title. And with BMW finishing in the top four in the opening three races, he could be right. Since taking over the Sauber team last year, BMW has developed a (very German) methodical and disciplined approach to running a race team. And with Heidfield and Kubica, they possess one of the strongest driver line-ups in the competition.

Our prediction: 3rd - Future champions?
