Formula 1

The 2007 season kicked off with the first race at the Albert Park in Melbourne- it was a strange feeling that after sixteen years there is will be No Michael Schumacher (wonder what he will be doing ) - Anyways the race had to be followed and Ferrari stamped their superiority with Kimi Raikonen winning the race for Ferrari. Felipe Massa the second Ferrari driver finished sixth after starting from the last on the Grid.. Current Champion Fernando Alonso finished second but driving for Mclaren Mercedes-- Renault for whom Alonso raced last year finished 5th and 11th respectively-- It is amazing to note that how Drivers can change the fortune of the teams as well. The race had its share of accidents and David Coulthard the Red bull driver narrowly missed shaving off Alex Wurz-- the replay looked just like the movies and Coulthard;s car took off and went above Wurz's car and dropped on to his left-- Luckily there was no mishap and Coulthard emerged out of the mess unscathed--
There is lot of safety about these cars and the tracks--
