It will be interesting to watch McLaren and Mercedes in the future weekends, because they should introduce their ride height adjusting system as well, which so far has enabled RBR and Ferrari to stay above others in qualifying.

Another interesting thing is that Renault's engine, which has been allowed to get upgraded by the FIA, should appear soon. It remains to be seen, how much can this boost the performances of both Red Bull and Renault.

Alonso seemed a bit bigger favourite for the WDC than others after the first two opening races, but as in Malaysia Ferrari showed some clear weaknesses (strategy + they could be short on engines soon too), situation could become more critical for them.

So much about future outlooks and in-season development potential at the moment.

Vettel's situation has greatly improved compared to what it was after Oz, but we need a few more races and confirmation about the car's reliability before hailing him as the biggest favourite for the title.

Drivers-wise the situation is interesting too. Alonso and Hamilton have seemed a tad bit quicker than their team-mates, but I believe Massa's last word hasn't been said in terms of pace yet. And Button has been mildly impressing me so far - he may seem a tad bit slower than Hamilton, but he has the ability to use his other strengths to maximize the results of the race. Also in Malaysia he was close to getting ahead of Hamilton after pitstops. Clear improvement over what we saw Kovalainen doing during the last year. Although one might say that the Finn started his McLaren career relatively well too, matching Hamilton in points after three races...
