While college basketball fans may be scrambling to fill out their brackets, March also marks the start of the 2009 F1 season. Two-Time world Champion Fernando Alonso recently sat down with Spanish television network, La Sexta to fill out his pre-season bracket grid.

Alonoso’s Picks:

1. Brawn GP Formula One

2. BMW Sauber F1

3. Scuderia Ferrari Marlbro

4. Panasonic Toyota Racing

5. ING Renault F1

6. Red Bull Racing

7. Vodafone McLaren Mercedes

8. AT&T Williams F1

9. Scuderia Toro Rosso

10. Force India Formula One

Two huge surprises thus far, have been the success of the Brawn GP cars after the fate of their season was left in doubt for much of the off season after Honda decided to drop out of Formula One, as well as the poor test results of McLaren, last years runner up in the Constructors Championship and team of last years Drivers Championship winner, Lewis Hamilton. More to come as March 29th nears.
