Perez without a doubt. This year he already had a car to do it, but next year he will have a team to do it, which is enormously inportant (see the difference between Sauber in Malaysia and Williams in Spain). He definitely will win one of the first 5 races of the season and Monaco will be a very good bet for his 2nd win.
Grosjean is very likely to take a win. He already almost did it in Valencia, so with more experience and luck it absolutely should be possible in 2013.
Unfortunately I don't see a chance for Hulk. He has the same crap team as Perez did this year and Sauber was already dropping back into deep midfield at the end of 2012, eventhough the problem was somewhat masked by marvelous race pace showed by Perez, while his teammate was nowhere near him, showing more realistic potential of the car..
Really? Here's some info you might want to know (I'm sure you'll find some illogical reasoning against it as per usual)
WDC - Perez 10, Kobayashi 12
Podiums - Perez 3, Kobayashi 1
Points Finishes - Perez 6, Kobayashi 9
Points - Perez 66, Kobayashi 60
Out raced - Perez 10, Kobayashi 10
Out qualified - Perez 11, Kobayashi 9
Can't really say that counts as "nowhere near him" does it 'Armchair Expert'?
The Sauber wasn't a bad car this year, and had the chance to win races, its up to Hulk to make the most of any similar chances. Perez's task is to make the most of the chance with McLaren. I expect him to do reasonably well in the Macca, but he's certainly not outclassed people as you seem to think he has.
