- How high can he go? Obviously the bigger the gap between himself and his rivals, the harder it is to gain rating points, but I wonder how big that gap will be. (And in a sense this is a more significant number than his rating)

- If he qualifies for the World Championship, I believe it will be the biggest chess event since Fischer - Spassky 1972
- Who is likely to challenge him in the next decade? Caruana seems to be an obvious choice but is there anyone else?
