HOLY COW!!!! Honda + Braun + Button + diffuser = Australian pole? Wow did I miss the Hell freezing over memo? Really cool to see how the rule changes and the way different teams read them could bring the once lowly to the top. I really hope they ( the FIA ) do not get all gushy and declare honda's efforts all for not. Good to see some new blood up top. But for how long?

Im impressed with the Virgin car... Man im so glad F1 is back again, ive been watching F1 since i was 6yrs old. I miss the old Turbocharged days.. pure domination. Looks like Ferrari is struggling and Brawn is looking good this year... Hopefully my Ferrari team will think of something come race day ( doubt it as 1sec is alot to shave).

It was an interesting start to the season, thats for sure! A lot of the heavy hitter teams are still working the bugs out, and trying to get all the new stuff straightened out. It is going to be an interesting season! Go Ferrari!

its okay. F1 is about the only racing series where they need a whole new car every 2 years to fit the rules

Very disappointed so far this year with Ferarri! I'm kinda glad tho that Hamilton isnt doing that well either! Hopefully next race Ferrari can get their s#it together and start winning!
