Boo, that means the race in Australia will probably have lighting issues, especially with shadows over the track. And I don't mind waking up in the night, makes the race more interesting for me.phil1993 wrote:Just seen that quali for Oz is on at 6am and the race at 7am. Gonna be sleepy...
so as this year's result, ferrari 1-2 - then they'll win both titles...... i'd say, nah....it ain't going to happen this year, mark down my words.iceman1 wrote:Interesting Statistics
In 2009 Brawn started with a 1-2, and won both championships.
In 2004, Ferrari started with a 1-2 and won both championships.
In 2000, Ferrari started with a 1-2 and won both championships.
In 1998, McLaren started with a 1-2 in the first race, and won both championships.
In 1996, Williams started with a 1-2, and won both championships.
In 1992, Williams started with a 1-2, and won both championships.
it is quite interesting stats. i believe that Ferrari might win the title but the driver's championship could pan out differentlymegasyxx wrote:so as this year's result, ferrari 1-2 - then they'll win both titles...... i'd say, nah....it ain't going to happen this year, mark down my words.iceman1 wrote:Interesting Statistics

Unfortunately no real KURASHUUUU's this weekendZack wrote:
No, honestly think about it. Even if Alonso had 0.6ms( ) in his pocket it is still not enough to overtake Vettel easily. So all in all you got to accept the show was not that great or boring for few . Even compulsory 2 pitstops would hardly help. I think solution to the problem is Disallowing current double/triple/quadruple diffuser. Only way around this would be FIA to provide standard diffuser design IMO.donald29 wrote:If Vettel hadn't have had his problem I believe people wouldn't be shouting down the new rules. Alonso was closing him down and in his words "preparing to attack" I think we'd have had a great battle between those two in the closing laps. I say give it time and the last thing we need is a snap reactionary decision to make two mandatory pitstops. The media are over-reacting wildly and some of the drivers just need to STFU and get on with it for a few races.

I never said Alonso would overtake Vettel, but I'm sure he'd have given it a go and we could have seen a good battle with Alonso attacking and Vettel defending.Zack wrote:No, honestly think about it.

i kind of hope that there is no storm, because races there cannot get more inteeresting,, but it can come in quali perhapscformula1 wrote:2 mandatory stops? No thanks.
For Bahrain with a pointless twisty bit, the race was good. Expect drama and chaos in Melbourne, especially if they get storms like they did the other week.
