    Formula one starts this weekend!

    This weekend the Formula one season kicks off at Melbourne!

    Interested in seeing the ever so secrective F1-2004 from Ferrari.

    I would also like to see Minardi, along with Villenueve do better this year.

    But I'm supporting Montoya!

    Yeah, still....I hope it shows Ferrari a thing or two about engine durability - don't forget there's that rule change which allows only one engine for the whole race weekend.

    Reminds me of a gaping maw ala The New Audi A6

    It looks like he hasn't got a seat this year!

    And guess who's got the fastest time for the first practice?...Himself, M.Schumacher.

    Practice times dont mean much since the fuel load varies from car to car.

    Yes, I think your right. Once they put full fuel loads in the Ferraris may slow down a bit. Michael S. had a big moment in the second practice session. He showed amazing car control though. The reliability of all the cars are in question until the first few races are done. This makes for interesting speculation.

    Let's see what the boys in blue can do this week!? I think the higher Temps. will favor other cars than the Ferraris this time. GO Montoya!!!!!!!!!!!

    Sepang is a good circuit but takes it's toll on the parts that are affected by heat more than anything.

    Raikkonen got the fastest time at this morning's practice, with M.Schumacher second then the two Williams' with Ralf leading Montoya.

    Seems like there was a civil war going on inside the BMW-Williams camp between Montoya and Ralf before the Australian race.

    Montoya takes second! Good job Juan. Not bad at all considering his teammate blew up and the Michleins were sh*t this weekend. Aren't they supposed to be better in hot weather than the Stones? Regardless another win for the big red machine.

    It's the Bahrain Grand Prix this weekend, should be stunning.

    Latest is that Montoya is second and M.Schumacher is third in practice. I forgot who has the fastest time....

    I usually support M. Shumacher, and have done s since his time in Benetton, but I have to say I would like to see someome else on the podium, because it's starting to get ridicilous.

    Nontheless, go Schumi! (And of course Wirdheim! )
