Woke up early for the Australian GP. I don't know if I can stay away or wake up again for this one. Might have to watch the reply.

Wow what a lap, nobody can deny Lewis is just an incredible driver. Should be a good race tomorrow, hopefully we have some mixed weather conditions!

As always, THANK YOU to Mtxzptlk for all the wonderful pictures and taking the time to do this for us!!

Max done good, but that whining about GRO near the end was a bit much. Still, some great overtaking in that race.

Funny how the bad race threads go like 3-4 pages and the good race threads barely get anything. Ppl love to bitch, I guess.

The world's incoming number 1 is on the right on the pictures.
Put Max in a Merc and it's adiós to Lewis

Don't know about that, but he sure bitches like Lewis. I'm a LH fan but he can get a little whiny at times. Max cryin' about Grojean late in the race while being pressed by Riccardo was a bit much.

Maybe it was just a one off. Time will tell. He's definitely a very good driver!

Off course there is about 10% chauvinism in my post about being a Max fan, but he surely is the future of Formula 1

I've never been a LH fan, but I'm a big fan of his ex girlfriend which that has nothing to do with F1 nor with singing

Terrible day for Sauber and McLaren. Giovinazzi may be done before he starts and poor Alonso is stuck wondering if he'll ever see another podium. Sauber may be gone well before the season is over and we'll all probably wish Honda had never come back. They certainly don't seem in it to win it.

Exactly !
And do you know Robin that Red Bull is still using the old MGU-K from 2016 with lack of HP ?

Renault is still working on the new 2017 MGU-K. And they really hope the new engine is ready for May 14 in Barcelona (Spain)
All we can hope is ASAP more HP for the Red Bull Renault => http://www.f1journaal.be/index.php/n...-een-handicap/

Verstappen drove like a champ. Great run, a little maturity and this kid will go far. The way he made passes and climbed the grid was great.

Perez had made some great moves in both races, I'm keeping my eye on him for the future.

It was a good race and there were some good battles. The new cars are making for a good show in the bends. But then again, this grand prix was a track that lent itself to some great moves. We'll see what's yet to come.
