Grand Prix in Melbourne

Today is the last day of the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne, the first of 17 rounds of F1 World Championship in 2009. The 60th Grand Prix this year is somehow special in term of this occasion in which 400 tonnes of luxurious cars and dozens world-class racers gather together despite the ashes of Honda's decision to quit F1 due to the global financial crisis. And it's also special in term of the new British winner Jenson Button, a former Honda's racer.

Button compared his champion as the ending of a fairytale. This is the first performance of his new team Brawn GP after a buy-out of his old Honda team by former Ferrari guru Brawn. This is the first time since 1977 a Formula One team has won on debut. And this it the first time since Mercedes in 1954 a team has secured a  one-two on debut. Just forget Ferrari!

Today after taking some photos at the MCG, I was heading to Albert Park Lake to watch the race of highest-class F1 cars although i didn't have any ticket. Their sound was so exciting!

So I had to stand up like these people to look inside

At last, I took a photo of Grand Prix but it was not about the racing cars. it was about some aircrafts in the sky hehe.

And I came up with the idea that living in Melbourne is much more interesting than in Sydney.
