2009 Formula One Australian Grand Prix

[Larry Stovall]

The 09 cars are growing on me, especially now that I can hear them.

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

They look fantastic from onboard camera's and they sound lovely. Hmmm, actually the first time in years that i am enjoying F1 lol

 

[Richard Hamstead]

I literally threw up when I saw them in FP1 today.

 

[Larry Stovall]

Yeah, Sunday morning is gonna rock.

 

[Glenn Morris]

Definately not pretty.. They looked alright in pre season pics etc. But nah. Not the most attractive things in the world... Maybe if the rear wing was in proportion to the front wing... Wide and low, instead of short and tall...

Can't wait to get down to Melb tomorrow morning!

We cried about it (almost) last year but when you watch the Brazil movie for instance it's quite funny actually. Massa Senior not happy, and not to mention the Ferrari mechanic! Don't break the glass dude :loser:

Waking up to F1

That was great...

alarm went off, tv went on, red button. F1 Practice session2. great to wake up to the sounds of F1.

looks like the cooling track will add some excitement to the race with massa nearly ditching it.

very happy here seeing the Williams performing well too! Rosberg for the win!

FUN FACT

Did you know? Albert Park circuit looked like this 50 years ago:

It was then re-opened in 1996 with the new layout used for F1 races

 

[Kennett Ylitalo]

I kind of like the new look..
