If people were to rate the 2013 Australian GP out of 10, what would they give it?

I think it was a good race. No-one was totally dominant, there were several lead-changes, and there was good overtaking aplenty. I'm saying about 8/10?

Anyone else?

About 5 or 6.

About 5 or 6.

How come?

How come?

It was saved by the winner being someone I support but I just struggled to get excited about the first race of the season.

I'd give a 7.5. A popular winner thankfully, many on track battles which were clean and pro, and for personal reasons almost a perfect show by my favourite drivers and team.

Not sure what I would give it out of 10... the race had thrills and spills but I still struggled to stay awake

There was no scandal ****gates or anything to argue about.

I didn't think it was a particularly exiting race. It was interesting to get an idea of the pecking order and to see how strategies panned out, but no real wheel to wheel heart in mouth stuff. Give me more of the US GP last year please. But that's only because Pirelli took the wrong tyres to the US. I can't see those sort of races unfolding on go slow, Shredding every 4 laps tyres . But it wasn't a bad race. I'd give it a 6 or 7.

I gave it an 8, pretty enjoyable for me.

7 I think - boosted a bit by it being the first race of the season. If it had been mid-season, it would of been a 6 I think.

There were not that many battles from what I remember - but to be fair it was over 48 hours ago. Ive forgotten most of it.

I'd give it an 8, the on track action wasnt great but for the first time in years there was a tense strategical battle that only unravelled itself with about 5 laps to go, was very close between Alonso and Kimi until then!

I watched the first few laps of the GP again this evening, the tussle between Hamilton and Kimi was a pretty damned good piece of car control in fighting for a position. Should be F1 101 for every rookie on the grid, plus Grosjean and Maldonado.
