It's that time of year again where the Formula 1 Paddock travels Down Under to Melbourne. Albert Park is often one of the most packed circuits for in terms of spectator numbers, as the City Centre parkland circuit becomes the nation's Motorsport Festival for a weekend. This year brings the extra excitement of the first visit to the Southern Hemisphere for FIA Formula 2 and Formula 3! In F1, we are witnessing the start of Red Bull dominance for a second year, but Aston Martin have shown to be keeping up in the first races, can Stroll or Alonso break ahead of a Red Bull this time out? We will see at the AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX!

Youtube was kind enough to randomly recommend me a video from early 2020, with a thumbnail showing the original breaking news announcement that the Australian GP is cancelled.

I only panicked for a few seconds before realizing it was old
 
Tsunoda bouncing across the gravel trap.
 
I guess that’s qualifying over. Knowing how long it takes to get a car out.
 
So that's not a Red Bull 1-2 tomorrow then
 
That was a very un-Perez like....turning that red bull into a lawn mowing machine.
 
Albon is casually matching Verstappen
 
Wow. That was a cool last few seconds.
 
Mercedes p2 & p3...I didn't see that coming!!!!
Albon ahead of Alpine and Haas....good job!

Hopefully this will be a good race!

Alonso has a job on tomorrow. What are the chances of rain?
 
Checo with the disappointment of a weekend continues on. Qualifying was 1am for me, what happened with him?

Locked up, ended in the gravel, beached himself. Didn't seem to have any damage. He mentioned an issue over the radio, suggesting the lockup was caused by that
 
Will be a fully dry race by the looks.
5% chance of rain.
 
Whoa, nice start by George. Bad one by Charles. 😮

edit: Wait... did Stroll bonk Charles?

Ferrari doing Ferrari things... again.
 
That's on Charles, there wasn't really anywhere Stroll could go.
 
Totally Charles' fault, Stroll had nowhere to go.

Indeed. That got a major LOL out of me.

In any case, DRS enabled, so it's only a matter of time for Max.

Albon wrecked, 2nd saftey car.
