Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix – Boring!

Well I made the effort and got up at 2.30am to catch the first Grand Prix today. What a boring and uninspiring start to the season. OK, it was a good result for Lewis Hamilton and he showed great promise for the rest of the season, but nothing else stood out as remotely entertaining.

Kimi won it easily from the front, Alonso got past Hamilton in the pit stops and everyone else just sort of lined up behind them… a long way behind them.

I think I saw about 4 overtaking moves, one of which ended up with Coulthard flying across Wurz’s car, a moment of excitement, but other than that nothing else.

And that new tyre rule, you have to use both soft and hard compounds during the race, they are getting desparate if that’s the sort of rules they have to come up with.

Come on F1, make it exciting to watch again!
