Fantasy GP

Shhh, don't tell anyone but we have a new feature coming after the first couple of races and we're dubbing it "Fantasy GP LIVE"

Yes, that's right - you'll be able to see Fantasy GP scores as the race is in progress. We're currently testing and what not, but it will be AWESOME.

What do you reckon?

 

[Paul Rice]

Sounds like a plan, thanks for all your work on this

How did you get on with your budget @Gail? I found it bloody difficult and they will not even let you have just two cars.

Yes, quite difficult...a certain amount of switching things around to get a combination I’m ok with. I tried the two drivers thing last season....it wasn’t allowed then either.

 

[Mint]

Yes, I struggled to get what I wanted but still got $1m left though...

Hamilton in party mode?

Bit of needle in the post-qualifying news conference.

Lewis Hamilton mentioned being in party mode after producing that sizzling lap. Asked about that, he said: “I can assure you we don’t have a party mode. I use the same mode from Q2 to the end of Q3. There was no extra button or mode I engaged in.”

“What were you doing before then?," asks Sebastian Vettel.

“I was waiting to put a good lap in and wipe the smile off your face," responds Hamilton.

Lewis Hamilton's pole-to-win conversion rate isn't great in Australia, he has only turned one of his previous six pole positions into victory.
Only two other drivers have taken pole at the circuit in the last decade - Sebastian Vettel (three) and Jenson Button (one).

That's not gone to plan
