With a record 21-races ahead, a brand new team on the grid, a new qualifying format, new tyres and drivers, the pinnacle of motorracing starts into the 2016 season at the opening race in Melbourne, Australia, the 2016 FORMULA ONE™ ROLEX AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX™.
We wish everyone a great start to the season, including our friends from SUTTON IMAGES, whose exciting and cool photos we are already looking forward to.
Having a look at this empty Melbourne podium makes us wonder, who will be the winner this year.
Last year, celebrity interviewer Arnold Schwarzenegger joined winning Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton and his team mate, second placed Nico Rosberg on stage much to the delight of ten thousands excited fans. We hear “Arnie” is expected to be back on the podium on Sunday and look forward to seeing it.
Our Neuschwansteiner will soon be available as well in Australia! We are happy that our first bottle already made it there to the Grand Prix™. We can tell you already, there have been competitions down under for that bottle.
So we took it to the beach for a nice break after all the racing preparation action to watch the sunset session by Melbourne’s cool kiteboarders from Kite republic.
