Practice is under way in Melbourne. What can we expect to see this season, apart from further evidence of Nico Rosberg's sense of humour deficit?

I think it will be much the same as last year if the practice results are anything to go by.

Well the pants qualifying was certainly different.

Not a bad race this morning - shame Ferrari cocked up their strategy following the red flag. Amazed Alonso walked away from the wreckage of his McClaren - incredible feat of engineering to keep a driver safe in such circumstances. With Haas putting in a good first performance and Verstappen behaving like an arse it looks like it could be an interesting season.

I think we can safely say it didn't work.

Yes, that's about right.
