@Enigma he definitely had the car in 2007 – Fernando was on fire that day. In 2009 he had the speed with the update on the car – but a mix of bad luck and other things conspired against him and he finished last of the non-dnfs. Lapped both times I believe. But my point was that it was a bogey track for him previously.

@Enigma I’m going to the Melbourne Grand Prix (funds permitting), so I now know where I’ll be sitting! :D

@raymondu999 I thought he had retired in ’09. Wasn’t there a radio discussion around lap 20? – they wanted to retire to save gearbox/engine, but they just didn’t know whether it would rain or not.

@damonsmedley :) Just so you know, there’s a slight chance I may be wrong =)

Webber to win championship by 1 point then retire, button x hamilton to scrap too hard x be disqualified from most races, massa loses the plot x blames everyone for his misfortunes, vettels head dosent fit in the car anymore so cant race, alonso takes vettels seat at red bull.

I have got a feeling Schumacher will get at least a podium this year, I also think Vettel (if the car is up to scratch) will not lead every lap however, will be most pronounced in most races.
Lewis Hamilton will mostly be fighting for position with Kimi Raikonnen.
Jenson Button will take his stride and create better quali positions!
