This is my favorite one so far (aside from my own, of course).
So no one is bold enough to predict someone other than Carlsen at #1?

Chances are mine is the worst. So will be motivated to get first in rating points while Carlsen will be under pressure while defending his place.

Yeah... and he might fall off the map as a result.
If history has taught us something... there shouldn't be another winner than Karjakin. ;)
