G'day Everyone,
I arrived here in Melbourne this morning and headed out to the track for the pit lane walk. The weather today was changable, everything from sun to rain and there is a bit of a storm going on right now.
Here are half a dozen photos of the pit lane walk. Also, seeing the Ferrari up close really showed how ugly the step in the nose is.
The weather report for Saturday and Sunday is sunny, I am hoping that it is.
I will try and post up a few photos each day. Enjoy these ones.
Cheers, Aazz.

Great photo's aazz :good:
How jealous am I feeling right now hehe. Couldn't you have edited the Ferrari picture though to make it look nicer. It makes me :sick: hehe
Keep the photos coming, any of Fernando would be greatly appreciated...him I mean not the car :D hehe

Great pix, aazz!
Your Ferrari picture finally shows the real reason for that step in the nose. They put Alonso's number, 5, right there. That way, Massa can see it clearly in his mirrors and will know to pull to the side & let him pass. ;)

:nono: :nono: :nono: Like I have said before, Massa would have to be in front for that to happen. Not likely hehe
Sorry David got to stick up for my man hehe

It's really not very refined...surely they could have done something a little jazzier with the Ferrari nose - heck, even a graphic to accent it or something. Yuck.

Oh man how envious? Fantastic, lap it up!

Aazz seems to have found a way to go to a few of the Asian races each year. Always does great reviews and pics. We're all VERY envious of him. :good: :good:

G'day again everyone,
Here are some photos from the first two practice sessions. Sorry about the fuzziness in the photos but I am shooting through the fence.
There is a photo of Fernando just for Jugirl (sorry, he is in the car)!
I am back at the hotel trying to dry my shoes and drinking beer. Besides the rain I am having a great time and hoping for a couple of days of sun.
Cheers, Aazz.
-
Here are the next few photos. Sorry for the delay with Fernando Jugirl (maybe it was too much beer)! And thanks to Scott for alerting me to my very simple error, I resized the photos but kept clicking on the original :crazy:
Anyway, I'm heading to the track shortly and hoping for a Webber pole and Ricciardo second on the grid :P And finally the sun is shining.
-
Nice photos aazz, :good: I'm really really jealous though - you're there and I'm not. :D
The Ferrari has more than a passing resemblence to a double deck London bus, no wonder they are having issues with it. :DD
The Caterham looks a touch agricultural with the rain tyres on too. :swoon:
-
They are great pictures aazz :good:
It was worth the wait, definitely too much beer hehe.
Ferd looks fantastic even if the car doesn't ;) As for Webber pole.....dream on :P
Sorry Ferd if you read this but GG and all....Come on Jenson :crazy: hehe
Enjoy Quali, very jealous too

G'day everyone and here are the photos from Saturday,
I have got a couple of Alonso's Ferrari in the gravel and on the truck, what's going on there Jugirl (sorry, I had to mention it)!
There is also one of the Crusty Demons show that is happening here, these blokes are amazing, they are doing back flips just for a simple practice jump.
There is also one picture of Russell Ingall's Commodore from the V8 Supercars, they are my second favourite race series, this is from the pits after a massive shunt in the race.
There is also a couple of pictures of what I can see from my seat, I am sitting at the exit of turn two.
And finally there a bit of sun today and hopefully there will be some tomorrow.
Cheers and go Webber :yahoo:

Enjoy tomorrow, come on Ferd come through the field....please

As usual Aazz, you're wowing us. Thanks so much. :good: :good: :yahoo: :yahoo:

Outstanding, aazz! Enjoy the race, mate! :good:

G'day Everyone,
Here are the last photos of the weekend. From where I was sitting it was a pretty good race. It would of been good to see Webber get on the podium but fourth isn't that bad. It was good to see Ricciardo in the points as well especially how the start of the race went for him.
The last photos are of the race and the drivers parade. There is also one of Jet Pack Man. This bloke straps a jet engine to his back and flys around at a height of about 40 metres for 25 seconds. To me he seems to be only a little bit in control but he always landed and walked away.
It was a great weekend, even with a bit of rain at the start of it, and the tickets are on sale soon for next year so we can do it all again.
Cheers, Aazz.

Amazing pictures again Aazz. I'm sure it was a blast. Are you going to any other Asian races this year?

Great pics aazz, nice and clear. I want that safety car.

G'day Scott, I would love to go to another race this year but the next race I go to will be the Aussie GP next year.

Good pics aazz. :good: I really like the Button two finger salute one, looks like Vettel was close enough to see him taking the P. :D :DD
The Marussia car looks cool as well, surely the 2nd best looking car on the grid? ;)
