F1

I'm really not a fan of virginblue, but cheap is cheap!

As far as I can tell you cant book single day grandstand tickets. I'd love to do GA for thurs & fri, then turns 1&2 for sat & sun.

Did you know F1 cars make something like 160db on full throttle?

I went to Adelaide in 1989, sitting in the front row on pole position (in a grandstand, not in a car unfortunately!)

The first time a car went past, it was like someone had stuck a hot knitting needle straight thru my eardrums - I was delirious with pleasure and pain at the same time!!

The race was a complete washout - Prost refused to race and retired at the end of the first lap, Senna and Mansell both spun and crashed.

The race ended half way through and was the shortest race in GP modern history (despite the fortune I spent getting there!!)

Saw the trucks taking the concrete barriers from Altona to the track yesterday.

They are awsome shots Jayse. Lastime i was there was 04 and i was in the last turn, shumi stand. You dont see much action but hearing those engine reved up with out ear plug man it kills youre ear, but loved it.

I was in Shumi for last years race day. This year in Jones stand. Hopefully high enough to see OVER the safety barriers. Got the 4 stand multi pass again this year. I think we're in Clark, Fangio, Brabham and Jones.

We got return flights on Jetstar from Sydney on a sale about 6 months ago for $45 each way. Out of Tullamarine too. bring it on!

yeah, the safety barriers are a PITA to take photos, lucky the corp area i was in was high enough to look over it.

How good does the new Lotus car look. That paint job and the minimal sponsor stickers = cool.

Well that is just a classic Lotus look isn't it. I have to agree, it looks very nice. Good so see them back on the grid I must say.

nahhh, I prefer them in black!!

Mansell's JPS Lotus, from 1980 when I first started watching F1

I love the look of the New Lotus, and the new Renault looks amazing!!



I was watching a couple of the unveiling's the other night.

The fact that Mercedes got Shumi is an absolute coup!! I thow that he used to race for them in sports cars in the early 90's, but I dare say that he won't be on Ferrari's mailing list for a long time!!

4 stand multi pass is just, mate what more do you want ay.
