I enjoyed the race. Those Ferrari starts are something and will definitetly spice up the next few races. No doubt the other teams will figure something out with the starts as the season progresses.

Poor Oscar, what is it with Aussies having such shit luck at their home race? Lindblad looked decent, hopefully it’s not just a one-off like we sometimes see.
