Lucky you, all the TV tranmissions from Melborne will be in the day time.
Over here it will be very, very early in the morning
Still I will wake up early for both Saturday qualy and the Sunday race.
It just must be seen live! (Now for some 20 years.)

Not even on the cable in HK? In one of the worlds greatest citys!

Very entertaining race and Kimi did drive very good, considering his two year brake and the car.
Early mornings next weekend, again.

I am enjoying this season more than I have in a looong time (basically since Ayerton Senna was my guy), it is so refreshing NOT knowing who is going to win the race before it happens. Last weekend it was great watching Lewis win, and 2 new podiums - that is FANTASTIC. I can't stand boring racing when someone has 2 laps on the entire field, just makes me YAWN!!!!
Great job FIA making the racing competitive again.

yes it has been very good watch each race and that 1 new winner in every race so far, its also good to see lotus in the top too
I hope to see even the low end of the pack to win races too, the rule has made it much harder for 1 team or person to win every race I like it.

I agree Pingy, this has been great so far. I hated watching when everyone knew ahead of time who would win. This new close competition is really fun to watch. The drivers must be much more aggressive while making better decisions, Hamilton almost lost the last race due to 2 bad pit stops, he had to drive the wheels off his car to win - and what a great race he ran, he got fastest lap like 8 times in a row to get back into the heat of the leadership battle. It was fun and amazing to watch. (reminded me of when M. Schum had to run qualifying laps to win)

and there are still two further world champions in fairly competitive cars who haven't won a race. Could we reach 9 different winners by the end of the season? It's not beyond belief.
