F1 2013: Bring the noise

Smiles to you all.
Hope your week is going fabulously, mine is currently full of essays, Freud, Hamlet and lots of reading. I'm trying to be a good little student and get a lot of work done in the week so I've got the weekend to enjoy F1 to the max!

Yes you heard me!! F1 is back!! 
I can't wait to hear the roar of those cars. It has been WAY too long!!
The boys take to the grid in Melbourne this weekend for the season opener. I love the shear excitement of the first race of the season, starting the points all over again, new drivers, new set up and the return of the F1 butterflies - They are full flight already. 

I honestly have no idea what to expect this season but I'm going to attempt to make some predictions (wish me luck)

1. The Rise of Lotus Renault - Kimi showed us all that he really is the comeback kid in 2012. He may be a quiet one but he lets his driving do the talking when it matters.

2. Teething problems for Lewis - A new team can always throw up a few teething issues for any driver and i think that it could take a number of races for him to settle in. As Rosberg and he were karting buddies, i think we could be in for some sparks flying on and off the track from the boys.

3. Perez making himself at home - Like i said about Lewis, I believe it will be a similar case of new team issues for the first few races for Perez but he has demonstrated his talent so this really could be the making of him. World Champion of the future perhaps?

4. Massa, back to his best - In the final races of last season, Massa started to come back fighting all over again. Could he battle with Alonso? I think he's going to give it a damn good go!


As a life long Jenson Button fan i am praying that Mclaren have given him a worthy car this year! Its time for them to put their money where their mouth is - 2012 was full of their excuses which overall stopped Jenson having a chance to go for the championship. Pre season testing started well for the boys from Woking by getting the fastest on the first day in Jerez but it is reported in the media that Jenson is still not 100% happy with his 2013 contender. Only time will tell!  

I daren't make any predictions regarding Red Bull, who knows what magic Mr Newey has weaved for the RB9 - As i type this, i have just found out that Seb has named his new car 'Hungry Heidi' 
I was rather hoping to finally get my chance but i will have to wait yet another year =(

I love the fun team from Milton Keynes (does that rhyme) and I have no doubt they will be going for championship number 4. 
I may be biased but i think the RB9 is the prettiest car on the grid by far!  BEAUTIFUL! 


Not long to go now until FP1 =)
I'll warn you all now! Its going to get very 'Formula One' on the blog until November =)
Bring on that amazing sound!
