WIth the rules undergoing a pretty major reworking next year, could this be BMW’s really big chance at being up there competing with the big boys consistently and on merit - and perhaps beating them to be the best of the lot?

They have done incredibly well so far this season so it’s not outwith the realms of possibility that this will continue and they could still be in with a shout at the title come November, but this is by no means a certainty.

Two races in and it’s hard to really assess how this season is going to pan out given that the two races have led to six different people on the podium, but already there are some clear winners and losers among the teams.

This is how I think the teams have faired in the season openers:

Ferrari :  Last year’s champions, but they are going to struggle to retain the title if they carry on as they are.  Uncharacteristic mechanical failures have resulted in a lot of the drivers’ time being spent off the track.  The drivers haven’t covered themselves in glory either, with both falling off the track in Melbourne before Massa repeated the mistake in Malaysia.
