    Default 2006 Fosters Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix

    Who watched the F1 at Melbourne last weekend???

    I was in the Waite Grand Stand on Turn 12.
    Yes Webbers gear box did fail right in front of me.

    Poor Webber, i feel really sorry for him. But i guess when you add horsepower to the engine but don't upgrade your gearbox or clutch something is going to go wrong.

    How about Schuees smack... Spectacular

    And Button. ohhh, another sad story. "Right on the line"

    Was anyone else there??? What did you think of the weekend?

    For those that were at the track... "I like the way you move!"
    Now for a prayer...

    To our god, who art made in Adelaide. Holden be thy name. Thy legends come, and championships won, on circuits as it is on Mount Panorama. Give us this day our daily grunt, and forgive us our burnouts, as we forgive those who choose to drive fords. Lead us into temptation, and deliver us a V8. For thine is the spirit, the power, and the glory are yours, now and for ever.
    HOLDEN!

    I was meant to be at 12 however ended up at 3. Boring down my end and b**ody cold. Typical Melb weather. They had a bitumen runoff this year instead of the kitty litter. About 20 cars were saved over the weekend from being stuck.

    I think its much better this year with having the third GP on the calender instead of the first. It got rid of that "back to school feeling" and gave us a decent race instead of an unpredictable winner like past years. I think Alonso will do it again. Button is fast but the honda engines can not be reliable and fast.
