I don't know what's going on with the Australian team. I expect alot better from them.

Absolutely agree. NZ are doing well and could have pulled off a win. I think the Hulk took Reid in the pits but not sure. Coverage at the race left a little to be desired.

Interesting that even with a single car formula, you get such variation!

Australia and Brazil are very dissapointing while New Zealand and Malaysia are impressive.

I'm not surprised that NZ are doing well with the quality of people involved throughout the team. NZ is working as a team which is something that I don't think all teams are doing. Anything less than 5th place at the end of season would be considered a poor result.

What has surprised me is the poor results of former Formula 1 drivers in cars that don't have all modern technology.
