·Doubt it. Red Bull already has 4 months on everybody. Adrian Newey is by far the guy to beat. Betting by September 15 Red Bull wins both constructors and drivers. Mercedes is going to be nowhere again because they only employ Prima Donna’s who do nothing but complain. Ferrari will be Ferrari. McLaren may do ok. Aston Martin only have stones because of Alonso, they will probably do ok as well.
Be interesting to see if the lack of wind tunnel testing hampers red bull (if it's observed / enforced). Also depends if the rest of the field catch up. Ironically, finishing 2nd probably wasn't ideal for merc as they'll get less wind tunnel time with a (re)design that is still fairly new to them.
Obviously red bull are at a distinct advantage, but the aero time is designed to level the playing field somewhat. But you're also right that Newey is the secret weapon that the other teams have no answer to.
