But I've only been once, I'm getting on in years now, so I don't enjoy the crowds, and the TV coverage is great for me,...Wifey & I sit back with a bottle of something & enjoy the telecast. This year I am also enjoying seeing the input of Roger Penske into the DJR Supercar Team.
So, I'm looking forward to this afternoon. If Vettel can win the start, I believe He'll have a chance, if He doesn't then I reckon Lewis will drive off into the sunset.

It's not a patch on the old Adelaide race. The Adelaide race was something special. I lived for quite a few years on Fawkner Park and couldn't be arsed walking to the Melbourne GP, but I never missed a race in Adelaide.

Sigh.

Agreed...love the strategy of the pit stops...in this instance, it was quite exciting to watch whether Vettel could pull off a quick pit stop in order to get back out in front of Hamilton. Adds another dimension to the race, other than just seeing the fastest driver with the fastest car go round and round in front.
