Top 3 qualifying (cumulative times):
1. Fisi
2. Kimi
3. Alonso
Podium
1. Fisi
2. Kimi
3. Alonso
The Renaults look super strong. The Kimster will fight above his weight category
Which of these teammates will beat the other in the race?:
1. Ralf vs Trulli
- The Toyota looks to be ragged and Ralf has proved that he can't drive a bad car
2. JPM vs Kimi
- JPM will be a bundle of nerves and will be killed by the Iceman
3. Webber vs Heidfeld
- The Aussie crowd will inspire Webber to excel
4. Fisi vs Alonso
- Fisi will be"very 'appy" with his car
5. Karthikeyan vs Monteiro
- Karthikeyan will show Monteiro a clean set of heels
6. Massa vs Villeneuve
- Villenueve will realize that he is a has-been[/b]

Top 3 qualifying (cumulative times):
1. Barrichello
2. JPM - he has a habit of starting strong, but choking after the second stop
3. Sato
Podium
1. Schumi - c'mon, i know you're all thinking it
2. Button - Always a bridesmaid, never a bride
3. Barrichello - He'll push Schumi hard but he'll be blocking alot when Kimi tries to scream up from nowhere
Which of these teammates will beat the other in the race?:
1. Ralf - He's a better driver than Trulli. JT has a tendency to lose his cool
2. Kimi-as much as i like JPM, Kimi knows the McLaren much better than Juan
3. Webber
4. Fisi
5. Monteiro - this is just a shot in the dark. i really haven't heard of either of these guys, so it's a 50-50 shot
6. Massa- he's got talent. But he's got to dodge the 1st corner mayhem since he won't be near the front of the grid when the red lights come on

i dunno there is somethin about Fisi that i dunno i got this feeling hes gonna explode this year and jus show everyone especially Ferrari what they could of had all these years, I know Alonso is very good but theres jus this weird feelin I have about Fisi peforming super strong this year ESPECIALLY after the first 3 or 4 races. And when the F2005 comes ot it will destroy everything especially after i ts 1st race (that is unless bridgestone are very bad).

As much as I wish schumi to win at Australian GP, I hightly doubt he will be on the top step. Pre-season testing of the Renault and Mclaren looks very very strong. Ferrari will have the reliability, no doubt, but performance wise, they will suffer a bit.

Hoping and wishing someone from the McLaren camp will win. But it could be anyone from Mclaren or Renault or MS. The McLaren's look reliable enough. Not so sure about the Renaults though. And MS will be there to take good advantage of it if retirements should be the case. Can't wait.
Top 3 Qualifying,
Kimi
Alonso
Fisi
Podium
Kimi
Fisi

Predictions for the new season are very dificult,because of the new rules....
But I expect this podium at the end of the race:
1. Schumi
2. Button
3. Barrichelo
I expect that Monteiro finish the race in a good position.
if he can manage to reach the points this season,that will be a really good start.
