F1 - Round 1 - Albert Park, Melbourne.

Agreed. There's something very 9/11 about seeing a 747 flying just outside the CBD at about 1000 feet. I can't imagine how they pick the QANTAS pilot for that gig.

Loving it Andy, and still not at the half way point

Great first race...Weldone Jenson but what about that Williams....Shame he hit the wall on the last laps....Great drive up until then....Kimi did well from back of grid to 7th.....Some great drives today.

That 250 M is just the BEST - next to it was the Ferrari Tipo 500- for me the the pick was the Masa. Some other nice old classics there as well but bit busy to take shots 9maybe Scarlan has some to add later)

Couple of the Porker field - this is the main support category to f1 - green jet car #1 won all 3 races comfortably. All these cars are identical in specification and cannot be altered so its purely driver ability that determines outcome.

Love the 911 racing.......Always good close racing......But not as good as V8 Supercars which is starting on Motors TV now....I could watch V8 Supercars all day...Mad a s a box of frogs these guys are...
