I don't know if anyone cares here but the Australian Grand Prix practice has started on Speed. Of course this season has brought a lot of driver changes and new rules and regulations.

Raikkonen has had sketchy cars pretty much his entire formula 1 career so im interested to see what he can do now that he has a solid car. Scott Speed will still be a halfway back marker. Massa wont do shit. Spyker wont do shit. Alonso will win 3 in a row if his new car holds up. He should have waited to se what Schumacher was going to do before he signed with Mclaren because he could be driving Red right now. Mclaren Mercedes car is pretty solid. Alonso will take Massa'a place within the next 5 years. Raikkonen will finish about 2nd or 3rd overall. It's gonna be the Raikkonen Alonso show this year. Dubhai is gonna be sick, the track it fast as fuck. Although we do not have the priviledge of seeing driving perfection demonstrated by Schumacher it will be good to see some competition and not have a one man show. That is what i say.

BMW will finish 3rd at best. I'm sorry, but there is no way they can beat Ferrari or McLaren. The Renaults might not be as fast as they were in the past (or just not have as fast drivers) but the cars are still bulletproof-reliable and will likely finish 3rd. I'd love to see BMW do it though.

I'd love to see Williams finish top 5 in points, and with the way things are going at Red Bull and Honda, they could definetely do it. Go Alex Wurz.

Lewis Hamilton WILL be that good.

Ferrari will win the Constructor's Championship, Alonso will win the Driver's.

Fisi will be replaced by the end of the year with Nelson Piquet Jr.

no real predictions on this year. I kind of lost interest in f1 when williams bmw got rid of ralphie shumaucher a year ago.

But hey do we have a cult for this? if we don't i think one of us will have to make one.

hey cedric just so you know the racing industry is moving towards using renewable clean burning fuels, such as the IRL indycar series and American Lemans series being powered by Ethanol.

Also....Fuck Champcar and their bush league series

I think you meant to say Toro Rosso faster than Coulthard, cause Webber is in P7. And yeah it is pretty funny that Aguri was that much better than the Works Honda team, especially Barrichello. Hamilton is the man. The guy gets P4 and blows his nose on track. hahaha, that was hilarious.

Should be a good race tomorrow. Hopefully the Renaults pick up the pace and the BMWs can go the race distance so we have a bunch of teams fighting for the win, but none the less the Alonso-Raikkonen battle will be sweet. PS, go McLaren.

Lewis Hamilton crashes out or the Mclaren's mechanical failure continues to haunt the team.

Bmw gets at least 1 podium.

Ferrari or BMW will win

Wurz will finish in the top 6

Toyota will continue to suck

Toro Rosso gets at least 1 point.

Both Spykers finish higher than DC

haha alot of my mates that work in hotels down there have some drivers staying there they say some of them are fricking crazy nice and some are assholes but i guess if you get to drive around cars at 300km/h i would be a cokey son of a bitch as well.

oh and megan i got one of those courprate pases to and couldnt be bothered going down (im from sydney)and my hotel if full of people coming up here to get away from the race.
