Fry tips Mercedes for F1 impact




Nick FryMercedes GP chief executive Nick Fry is confident that drivers Michael Shumacher (5/1 F1 Drivers Championship Outright) and Nico Rosberg(12/1) can bring success to their team in the 2010 Formula One season.
Mercedes recently confirmed that Schumacher was coming out of retirement to drive for the team this year and Fry feels the seven-times world champion and Rosberg can both have a big say in the destination of the drivers' title.
He told GP Update: "I think for 2010 we have to aim for a top three place in the Constructors' Championship and of course we need to win races.
"It's very difficult to go beyond that because we don't know at this stage what our competition will do."
Fry identified Ferrari and McLaren, who have the British dream team of 2008 winner Lewis Hamilton (11/4 F1 Drivers Outright) and reigning champion Jenson Button (15/2) driving for them in 2010, as two teams who should be strong during the season.
Red Bull have also been tipped by Fry to have an impact with Sebastian Vettel (13/2) on board if they have sufficiently developed their car for the new season.
