Race day is just a week away at Albert Park, Melbourne. The Albert Park tack is of high interest to the drivers as it is known to be quite fast and the smoothness is an added advantage. Drivers have also commented that the steady placement of corners allows them to easily learn the circuit and achieve competitive times. However, the terrain around the lake is flat and coupled with the track design, meaning that the track is not favorable to overtaking or easy viewing unless one is in a grandstand seat.

Will this year again see the 2007 winner Kimi Raikkonen taking a podium finish or will it be a battle for the first race of the new season. All remains to be seen on the 16th of March with the ING Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne the fist race of the 2008 season. Lewis Hamilton and Raikkonen have seemed to developed a need to go head to head against each other The rivalry will be settled and pride scorned or heaped upon the first winner. May the best man win.
