The Official 2014 Australian GP Chat and Predictions

Get the violins out lads and lasses...

 

I'm not upper class so I'll stick to the trumpet.

 

I can't even look forward to seeing Vettel back battling in the field, he's not really going to have a car capable of following another without overheating.

Have we heard about the McLaren title sponsor yet? Are those sidepods a clue?

Well if it rains he might last the whole distance.

 

lol i would, but mines worn out after playing along to the "wa, Hamilton doesn't have the best car" song the last 5 years.

 

I fear for the electronics if it rains

Hoping that the days of bullet proof reliability for the field have passed, but not so that it gets silly. Want to see at least two thirds finishing.

 

the darker McLaren paintjob, have they taken our advice to make the car look nicer?

 

Somebody here has links with Mclaren.

 

Filthy Hamelot.

 

Oh dear, the rage is building it seems fans wise with regard to Mercedes dominance.

 

Despite the fact not a single competitive lap has been run. God help us by q3

 

not really, i look forward to the hilarious flip-flopping and shameless hypocrisy regarding what is "boring", and the reasons why this possible dominance is supposedly completely different to the Vettel/Red Bull dominance.

 

It's really nice that here we are, two days away from FP1, and I still haven't heard a single story slandering this race for the amount of money it costs taxpayers.

 

Good to be back on here.

Missed you guys

Shaping up as a Mercedes' to lose Championship then?

I'm not a big Lewis fan so will go for Rosberg.

Can't believe how much this race is costing taxpayers though

 

I can't believe most people are making Hamilton favorites already. For me, I think Rosberg has the slight edge, the british media are just being biased again.

 

Apparently Bernie has changed his mind from Rosberg to Hamilton too! and hes the one who fixes these results!

 

Shame I think it will be a good season but verbally it will be toxic as I expect to see a lot of Vettel fans (not me though), give a lot of verbal saying it's boring just out of spite for all the ****e that's been said over the years. If I was still in the game full time as a major fanboy it's what I would do...

To be honest the Vettel vs Hamilton rivalry of fanboys was probably the most toxic around until after 2012 and I expect it to resurface soon enough now that Mercedes is a force to be reckoned with.

 

At least we can expect a lot of new members here then as they will get banned from other forums for kicking off
