I want this to happen.

Rosberg races without pants.

But he's a woman...Sexually confused Rosberg?

Vettel fails to score points first 2 races.

Sounds about right.

For the lols, Marussia and Caterham scores F1 points. In all seriousness, Sergio Perez winning in F1...in his first race as a McLaren driver.

I had joked with my dad about this happening just the other day. That would be something to see, IndyCar champion "Dominant" Danica Patrick destroying the field.

by Milan655 Fri Mar 15, 2013 1:28 am

Front 10 as expected, apart from 8th for Sutil. Further back, Marussia are clear of the Caterhams, with a good lap from Bianchi too. A good contrast between money and skill.

by PYLrulz Fri Mar 15, 2013 1:40 am

What's the one thing that always makes an F1 race more interesting?!?

RAIN!!!!

Calling for it Saturday and Sunday!

by Milan655 Fri Mar 15, 2013 1:59 am

Sunday they say is a diminishing possibility, but it appears maybe even hail this Saturday.

by **crl** Fri Mar 15, 2013 3:04 am

Well, Mercedes having some problems in FP2...

by Milan655 Fri Mar 15, 2013 3:05 am

1 in the wall, the other stoppe with suspected gearbox failure.

Time Warner: Hey, you know what's cool?

Me: watching F1 on NBC Sports?

Time Warner: yes, but how about having two of the same Food Networks?

TL;DR version: I thought I was done watching streams for F1....fuck you Time Warner.

It's Melbourne, if you don't like the weather, just wait 10 minutes.

And I must say, for that video, I love one of the top comments:

Should be fun on how it all plays out.

by Metro 6r4 Sat Mar 16, 2013 5:12 pm

From what I've seen there is no dominant team yet, so this should be fun. I'm watching this and going to a sprint tomorrow so it looks like i'm doing an all nighter. Smile

by Milan655 Sat Mar 16, 2013 7:59 pm

More rain expected according to Toro Rosso.

by RealRacer4 Sat Mar 16, 2013 8:58 pm

All I have to say about this race after seeing the starting grid...VETTELWINSLOL.

Wow. McLaren did POORLY in qualifying while Mercedes did well with Lewis Hamilton qualifying 3rd and Nico Rosberg qualifying 6th.

They're probably wishing it's going to since it could increase their chances of finishing better. Rolling Eyes

Weather Channel is optimistic with weather, Accuweather isn't.

Can someone close to the area give us a good report?!?

Don't think there are any Melbourne citizens who are members on this forum

Well, one more hour and the 2013 F1 season will officially start. I just wish the race wasn't on at the same time Evangelion is. Sad

Does anyone have a stream?

by RealRacer4 Sun Mar 17, 2013 1:57 am

Yup. It's from SkySports. I know there are a lot of ads to deal with, but if you go full screen, it's not so bad. http://www.firstrow1.eu/watch/175402/1/watch-formula-1-australian-grand-prix---race.html

Some dude named Scott McLaughlin won the 4th and final V8 Supercar exhibition race today. Hopefully, Nelson can tell us more about him.

by **crl** Sun Mar 17, 2013 3:34 am

KIMI WINS! FREE MAGNUMS FOR EVERYONE!

The ice cream, you dirty-minded freaks...

by BBoy Sun Mar 17, 2013 3:36 am

A solid race to begin the 2013 F1 season if I say so myself. Great job by Kimi and a hell of an effort by Sutil in his comeback race.

by Alta Sun Mar 17, 2013 3:37 am

Alright Race. Thought it was going be pretty close until pit stops threw that out the window lol.

GW Kimi. Ice Cream man getting warmed up early this year!

by f1fan12 Sun Mar 17, 2013 3:39 am

Kimi knows what to do...

by AntmanB Sun Mar 17, 2013 3:44 am

The Race wasnt Boring. THats all there is to say.

Vettel Didnt win. Sweet.

by RealRacer4 Sun Mar 17, 2013 3:49 am

Kimi wins. Sweet. Adrian Sutil made one hell of a statement today. I would like to see both Kimi and Adrain continue that trend. I had a feeling that Kimi would be a threat for the title this year and he definitely showed it. There was some action throughout the race but not really enough to get me sitting on the edge of my seat. Other than that, I'm looking forward to next weekend's race!

by navycook75 Sun Mar 17, 2013 3:50 am

Kimi wins!

Man I'm glad Kimi could win that one, maybe he could actually be a major contender for the title this year.
