    The start is de Javou from the Australian Grand Prix. However, I hope the finish is not, and we get to see both of our boys on the podium. 1-2

    This race is going to be wet, wet, wet. It will also be a standing grid start, regardless of the rain.. So, it could shake things up. A little slip at the start could be good for half a dozen places. And the first/second turn complex could become a junkyard.

    Pit stop Strategy will be very important. Especially with no data from practice, it can be anybody's race.

    It may be we could start off on a wet track and as the race goes on they kick up alot of spray and mid-race or 3/4 of the race we start seeing a dry line???? so yeah, tyre strat. will be important.

    Looking at the forecast weather it looks a lot better than was previously expected it is light rain and misty right now only 20% chance of rain at the start.Those bigger tyres will create a drying line pretty quickly.You might even see some of the back end of the grid starting on inters.Its is pretty chilly there 50f so not easy to get the tyres at the correct temps,and keep them there.

    Turn 1 is the race other than the weather. Still should be fun with the wet and bring a touch of suspense. Good morning!!!
