Michael Schumacher believes that Red Bull will win the Formula 1 title for a third successive year.
The Mercedes driver feels that the defending champions have the edge over their fellow competitors.
"Victory to me is unlikely, I see Red Bull in front," the German said on his official website.
"Behind them it will be tight, and you can be either a hero or a zero very quickly. It will come down a lot to the ability of how well you set up your car to the respective track."
Schumacher went on to tip the Silver Arrows, McLaren, Ferrari and Lotus as Red Bull's main challengers.
