The return of Formula One

Formula One made a return to our screens today at Albert Park in Melbourne, Australia. The race was 58 laps, totaling 307.574 kms. Most interestingly for F1 fans, it was the first time to see the new regulations in action.
Those include the return of KERS (Kinetic Energy Recovery Systems), the introduction of adjustable rear wings and, of course, the new Pirelli tyres. (see right hand image)

Due to the high wear of the Pirelli rubber, many people complained as they felt it would have a bad effect upon the F1 season, but it seemed to have no effect in Melbourne whatsoever.
