Speedyreg – Australian Grand Prix<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve been eagerly awaiting the roar of the engines, the excitement of F1 and all the thrills and spills the races always bring. So we\u2019re all set for the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne. Despite the postponement of the Chinese Grand Prix due to Coronavirus, and the plan to hold the Bahrain GP without spectators, the Australian round is set to go ahead as planned. The Australia race weekend is one of the best attended of the F1 races with around 100,000 spectators. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This season is going to see the world watching Lewis\nHamilton to see if he can secure a seventh world championship win and match the\nrecord set by the great Michael Schumacher. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
