The Official 2009 Australian GP Thread *spoilers*

Agreed. I know we are only a few minutes into it but it's a constant stream of information coming through. Promising start from them

Brilliant coverage! Hamilton pulled it out the bag just the too, thankfully. There is performace in the Mclaren, you just have to drag it out kicking and screaming.

Yeap...enjoying very much the commentary from the BBC team. Excellet stuff.

Do wonder if Brawn made a mistake by going for the best times there...maybe used too much tyres?

Manic Q1. Go Brawn!

"Do wonder if Brawn made a mistake by going for the best times there...maybe used too much tyres?" Not really, Button did 1 lap less then most of the others (7), Barrichello did 9, but so did both Ferrari's and Vettel. Nakajima did 10. So they should be good

Hamilton out, some 'rear drivetrain' thing. The Mclaren really needs sorting out, because I think the car could be fast in Hamilton's hands, he did a good lap at the start of q1.

Ah, did not notice that They should be alright indeed then.

1:24 times!!?? What in the name of hell lol, these cars are gonna set a lap record at this rate. Arent they meant to be slower?

lewis getting a chance to fight with weaker goods!


Jenson drives it like he owns it; Lewis drives it like he stole it

TBH, with slicks I already expected them to be faster. Ferrari cutting it quite close there...let`s see what they can do. Surprised by some of the teams there.

Jonathan Legard - can't really comment until the race, but he's better than James Allen at least.

Brawn GP cars will be getting pole, unless they fuel it up. The Red Bull cars musta been sandbagging in practice, they've not threatened at all. McLaren are nowhere, and will stay that way unless they can magically find half a second a lap from the caverns in their arses. Piquet - LOL, last 5 on the grid.

Everyone knows that million-to-one chances happen 9 times out of 10; indeed, it's a common requirement in fairy tales. If the human didn't have to overcome huge odds, what would be the point? Terry Pratchett - The Science Of Discworld

he ended up 15 thou...

Anyways, people claiming Brawn where doing a Prost and stuff can now go and swallow their own words eh?..

seriously, you got to admire those guys! great job! go Jenson


and please kick Piquet out before the race starts, useless piece of @#$%&!

Button on pole! OH YES!

*Happy*

Well, there you go. Awesome job by Button. Good stuff by Barrichello too...though I reckon Rubens should be a bit heavier.

Get in !!!! Well done Jense!! What an exciting Quali. Brilliant to see the Brawn on Pole and locking out the front row. A team less than a month old, great stuff.

just simple amazing! to think this time 4 weeks ago... :D

now watch all the hamilton fanboys jump a sinking ship.


Jenson drives it like he owns it; Lewis drives it like he stole it

Wow well dont Brawn the gap to the rest is quite big.

debut with a 1-2

BIG nod to Vettel btw. Dude sticking it in 3rd. Awesome

Even though I support Ferrari, I cant stop smiling because this is just brilliant!

Hopefully Brawn have no problem with sponsors/money after this week and we'll have a new big team on the scene.

Edit: Great job by Vettel getting 3rd, already burying Webber in dust lol.
