Hamilton is now fifth and the halfway point in the race. Many drivers ahead still have to pit or so goes the conventional wisdom.

Kevin Magnusson is out of the race and it is a double retirement for Haas.

Hamilton is trying to catch him but I think Vettel has too big a lead.

Looks like it is going to be Vettel for the win followed by Hamilton, Bottas, and Raikkonen. WOW. Ferrari may have finally caught the Mercs! It was pit strategy that got Vettel ahead of Hamilton. Ten long years since a win by Ferrari in Australia. Scuderia-Ferrari is back and the church bells in Marinello are ringing!!

Here is how we did:

Hank Kingsley: 1 point- Correctly selected Raikkonen for fourth.
Retroram52: 1 point - Correctly selected Raikkonen for fourth.

Nobody else showed-up.


Next up: Chinese Grand Prix, April 4, 2017.
