2005 F1 Round 1 of 19: Australia

Formula 1 2005 season rules changes made for a pretty interesting inaugural race in Australia.
Quite telling are the results – not the usual Ferrari atop the podium. There was a Ferrari in second place – but it was piloted by Barrichello and not Schumacher. A great drive by Giancarlo Fisichella in the Renault – and a great team effort by Renault with a first and third finish.
Malaysia is next – Sunday, March 20 (televised live on SpeedTV very early on Sunday @ 1:30 AM EST).
