The Brawn GP team have undoubtedly got the fastest car on the grid. But these teams have the potential to catch up fast -
1) Red Bull : Sebastian Vettel was able to keep up with Jenson Button during the Aussie GP in a car that did not have KERS or the controversial diffuser. Red Bull are working on both these systems and the European leg should see the Red Bull go faster with these introductions. Don't forget, they have the best aero dynamicist in Adrian Newey.
2) Williams : The Williams had good race pace, but performaed poorly on the softer option tyres. Williams are also close to introducing their radical new KERS. The William KERS is a flywheel KERS which is very different from the battery based systems that is used by rival teams. The weight saving can contribute significantly to optimize the car's weight distribution and make it go faster.
3) BMW : Kubica looked close to catching up with Jenson Button in the closing minutes of the Aussie GP in a car that did not have KERS.
4) Ferrari & 5) McLaren : These teams are championship winning team with vast resources. Expect them to bounce back.

Only 4 points? U forgot one more thing, i.e. Caste politics..that is what JP is playing here and Chiranjeevi and Chandrababu naidu
I think he is a champion of champions. Master mind behind Ferrari 1-2 finishes. He is greater than M. Schumacher, because, M.Schumacher only drives the car, but, the plans are laid usually by Brawn.

Mr.Pandu.... Brawn is good. But to tell that he is greater than Schumi. I am guessing that you haven't watch Schumacher drive.

I would agree with you most of the time but the fact that rediff allowed your comment to be posted shows that they do have a genuine article. They do not post comments against them.

It's too premature to comment on the future of this season. Ferrari and other top teams have seen enough of F1 to give up so easily. I am sure they will be back with a bang. But surely, this year promises to be very interesting one.
