23.08 2007 Melbourne Grand Prix

I know that this is very late, considering these photo's were taken back in March! These really compliment the previous post(click here to view it) about our Grand Prix weekend.

So I thought that it would be a great opportunity as they have just released the dates for next year's race - March 16! Which is very fortunate as its a few days before our lease ends on our apartment! Looks like it going to be even better than last year with the addition of the V8 Supercars!! I'm getting our tickets next week!

Damp Start: Practise was quite wet on the first day, but fortunately it cleared up to be a very warm & sunny weekend - we're looking forward to a return of that weather very soon!

Melbourne: View of the City from the start line.

Great View: Joanna in her seat!

Entertainment: It wouldn't be complete without the traditional flypast!

The Glam: The Minogue Sisters adding a bit of glam to the event. Unfortunately I didn't get any photographic evidence of Stirling Moss touching them both up!

Drivers Photo: Unfortunately we could only see the back of them! So I managed to find the official photo on crash.net.

The Grid: Frantic activity on the grid just before the start. We did see Martin Brundle doing his pit walk & Susie Perry doing a piece on the front of the grid too!

Lights Go Out: This is the moment when there was a mass of noise & vibration, and just before all the air got sucked out from around us!

Big Screens: These are vital to see all the action as it happens!

The Winner: Kimi stands on the top step, with Fernando & Lewis either side. We didn't quite expect that or the way that the rest of the season has gone!
