    I can tell you who is not going to win the Oz GP.

    Mark Webber. He can qualify first, with the best fuel/race strategy, and still manage to get punted off at the first turn. The guy is just jinxed when it comes to racing in front of the home crowd.
    Marco Simoncelli 1987-2011

    Actually, he's been jinxed no matter what.

    But right you are, something about Australia he just can't seem to get it right.

    Last year was the first year he had a car capable and didn't make a lap. He stuffed up his quali and was then shunted by Rubens. Similar thing year before if I recall with Nakaz on the first lap.

    Next year? Well, the monkey is officially off the back. The win monkey that is. The Australian GP monkey? Is yet to be seen.

    Webber seems really confident at the moment. In a number of February fluff pieces he seems to have his head and motivation in the right place. Only time will tell for the Aussie GP.

    Last year I watched Webber get shunted off at the first corner, let's hope he can at least make a lap this year. It's all about the qualifying and last year his qualifying wasn't great considering the car he had under him.

    Who can win the first GP? Well, I say about 10 different guys can do it. Shall be good to see! I can't wait.
    Ayrton Senna, Legend. R.I.P.

    Jinxed? He finished 5th in Australia in his FIRST ever race... in a MINARDI, of all cars!

    I think he'll win it this year, and there won't be a dry eye in the house!

    Cause no-one gives a toss about Bahrain. They're only forced to because it's the first race of the season :

    +1. Bahrain is just not a season opener.

    Fernando Alonso - because the Ferrari F10 will not be a problem car and the Spaniard is the most determined driver, other than Schumacher the only driver without weakness and he is ready to once again beat Schumacher after a most frustrating time at Renault.

    Underestimate him at your peril.
    Jense - Mclaren MP4-25 :D
    MonzaOne :D
