Well, It looks like McLaren and Lewis Hamilton are off to a good start. With Lewis on the pole and his teammate just behind it looks like a good starting position for the first race of the 2008 season.

Will Lewis shine again this season without Fernando Alonso on his team? Only time will tell, but it looks like things are off to a great start for McLaren this year. I guess we’ll just have to see how the race goes tomorrow.

BMW is looking very strong too, perhaps it will be at least a 3 way challenge this year.

Bridgestone Red Stripe Tire Now White DOT Tire.

It looks like Bridgestone will be marking the soft compound used in Melbourne this week but not with a pretty red stripe. Bridgestone has elected to go with a “White Dot” that will be 3 centimetres in diameter.

Bridgestone is also pointing out that this may change after the Melbourne race.

I’d really rather see a bold red stripe instead of a little white dot and while they are at it how about some nice chrome hub caps!
