We show that minimal SO(10) Grand Unification models where the fermions have Yukawa couplings to only one (complex) {\bf 10} and one {\bf 126} of Higgs scalars lead to a very predictive neutrino spectrum. This comes about since the standard model doublet contained in the {\bf 126} of Higgs (needed for the see--saw mechanism) receives an induced vacuum expectation value at tree--level, which, in addition to correcting the bad asymptotic mass relations $m_d=m_e$ and $m_s=m_\mu$, also relates the Majorana neutrino mass matrix to observables in the charged fermion sectors. We find that (i) the $\nu_e-\nu_{\mu}$ mixing angle relevant for the solar neutrinos can be considerably smaller than the Cabibbo angle and lies in the range ${\rm sin}\theta_{e \mu}= 0-0.3$, (ii) $\nu_e-\nu_\tau$ mixing is sin$\theta_{e \tau} \simeq 3|V_{td}| \simeq 0.05$, (iii) the $\nu_\mu-\nu_\tau$ mixing angle is large, ${\rm sin}\theta_{\mu \tau} \simeq 3|V_{cb}|=0.12-0.16$, and (iv) $m_{\nu_\tau}/m_{\nu_\mu} \ge 10^3$, implying that $\nu_{\mu}-\nu_\tau$ oscillations should be accessible to forthcoming experiments.
