2010 Australian F1 GP

Australia preview quotes - Virgin, Ferrari, Force India, Williams & more


After the spectacular but sparse desert setting of Bahrain, the 2010 FIA Formula One World Championship heads to Australia and the bustling metropolis of Melbourne for round two. Both the city and circuit are favourites - not just with those in the stands, but also with those hard at work in the paddock and on the track…

2nd GP of the year...

This better be an entertaining race. I would not be able to stand another high speed funeral procession.

I really thought Shumi would be more competitive last time around, lets see how this one goes - one race doesn't make a season.

Phone the last track was simple, good car gets you places. You cannot expect him to do well on a track like that with a slower car.

Ya i will watch the start but i am not sitting through another GP unless i can see something interesting developing.

Now that we all have uncapped, those without monochoice, please use TVU Player or Sopcast to watch the F1 on CCTV5. Since it's P2P, I imagine it's 'the more, the merrier'. More viewers = better streaming.

TVU was better last race - I even got to watch the GP in Tanzania on a patheticly intermittent connection!

After all the hype the first race was no more than the usual procession we are slowly growing to despise. Bernie and his cohort keep making changes for the "better" but never actually seem to get the cars close to competitive racing. Overtaking appears to have long disappeared from the F1 race, and must be partially due to track design

Australia had better be more entertaining or risk losing loads more fans.

The only really excitement, for me, which remains is the return of Schumacher. He brings a bit of hope.

Maybe the twilight race time will make it a bit more interesting.

 

[Viper25]

I hope this race is more entertaining than the last one.
F1 is just not the same anymore...
1990 - 2001 .. Now that was an exciting period for F1

The best racing for me was the Aryton Senna era.
Watching the drivers holding the steering wheel with one hand, while changing gears with the other and negotiating a corner all at the same time. Now that was racing

 

[JerryMungo]

ROFL @ Virgin asking the FIA if they can modify their chassis since their fuel tank is 13L shy of finishing some races. What nanas...

 

[killadoob]

What time is it? Like 6 tomorrow morning or something?

Its a RBR front row lock out. Lets see if the Renault engine will last the entire race.
