Melbourne was a great way to start the F1 2001 season off. At last it's only about 5 months since the last grandprix but it seemed like an eternity. The moents of truth were upon us. I somehow I couldn't believe I was actually watching this I can't remember another season where I was so excited. The race had everything it had a flying start, overtaking (HOORAY some action) and even some cars touching and crashing. Unfortunately the safety of F1 is going to be looked into because in a space of 5 races 2 track marshals have died due two major crashes. Both incidents occured when a loose wheel struck each marshal in the head leading them to having fatal injuries which led to their deaths. I personally think that the barriers at the race track side are no where near high enough and similar incidents have occured before. Ricardo Zonta in testing once even flew over a barrier which was on a barrier and Villieneuves tyre once bounced right into the crowd. Sundays incident was a plus for car safety but the safety for marshals and people surrounding the track must be considered very carefully.
