"Take care"... Hmm, this is Ferrari... Italians, Cosa Nostra - "Take care" of Alonso might mean something not quite in a racing context...

Ho ho ho.

So I'd like to know why everyone's so gassed about Sutil's performance on Sunday. He lead the race for a while, as he was on a 2 stopper, but ultimately finished just one place ahead of his team-mate... Maybe he'd have finished better if he had pitted much later and raced on what were effectively qu...

I think the low plank was intentional

How do you mean?

It might be a no brainer (at least for me), but it's worth asking. Who was yours?

Top 10 in the poll, name any other driver not included.

The mojo that helped him have better pure pace than Kimi for much of last season.

Indeed. I was hoping for better from RoGro today.

He only had his race components fitted on Saturday morning - he had no time to set the car up. That's why he wasn't really anywhere today.

No, not best in years, at all, but still very good.

Don't forget Lotus/Renault usually start the season well, but then completely drop off in the development race. I hope this doesn't happen this year, obviously, but you can't ignore it - it's a trend. In 2012 Kimi was last driver beside Alonso and Vettel to drop off the WDC race and Lotus won 18th ...

I'm not getting carried away by this - Australia is an anomaly, in terms of the form book. But Kimi has won a race this season, that's always a good thing, and something that can't be taken away from him. Also, it was 100% on merit, unlike Abu Dhabi (he didn't inherit the lead).

He was in heavy traffic at the start of Q1 had a clear run in the middle of the session and then traffic again when everyone switched to inters.

20 minute delay.

Holler.

sgt.hartman

Phew. End to q1 was a tad scary. Was right on the 'bubble' for going out before he completed his last lap. There was a incident in final sector, not sure where he was in relation to it though Turns out he'd have made it anyway, but yeah, I was sat there anticipating him to drop one more place and o...

Given the amount of crashing going on (by veterans and rookies alike), I think their start delays were vindicated. Nobody wants to see a bunch of mangled cars, and possibly injured drivers, and a red flagged session, which could easily have happened.

It's only 2 practice sessions, and Australia is a bit of a unique track (insomuch the form book there rarely carries over to the rest of the season, since it's only a track used once a year), but it's definitely looking good - Lotus are showing both strong long run pace as well as low fuel pace.

Simple question... Webber (as has been the case for the last couple of years) is on a rolling 1 year contract. At the end of the season, he's out of contract. Will this be his last in F1, RBR, or will he re-sign with Red Bull?

It's an obvious one, but Lewis on Kimi Monza 2007. I'll never grow tired of watching that.

Canada '08 double overtake on a crumbling track Overhead & onboard replays It's funny how people get so gassed about this overtake.

Especially for someone who had not taken part in regular wheel-wheel racing. It was like the Kimi of ol...
