Killed the PU in Turn 10 during FP1. Pilot error. So Mad Max is human instead of a T-1000 killbot.

F1 sim racing - Australia:

Oh no! He *maybe* won't win one race, that one is for Checo! The competition in F1 is fierce this year!

It's good that Williams races with Mercedes engines, otherwise team MERC would be the slowest team on the grid with a Mercedes engine....
Their start of the year is a disaster.
You start to wonder if Hammy already knew this years car would be this bad...again when he signed at ferrari

But maybe Hammy knows something the other drivers dont

I had a party last night from a mate of mine who turned 50....
I went by train....obviously not because I like trains.
So I was back at 2.00, decided not to sleep. Thats for after the race.

A clean start. A wonder
And it looks like Max will be out of DRS range before DRS?
edit:0,9sec

And sai follows and now leads!!

And it seems that the Mclarens can follow too.
I wonder if Max has a problem.

Edit: Max has definately a technical problem
His new engine goes bye bye. Or brake? or fluid from the engine on the brake?
