First Look at F1 2025 – Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne

F1 hits Melbourne: All you need to know for the 2025 Australian Grand Prix

The pinnacle of motorsport returns this weekend as Formula One kicks off its 76th season. After many years of holding the opening race in the middle east, Melbourne Park in Australia will once again be the site of the first Grand Prix of the year.

The grid will look a lot different than in did in 2024, when all 20 drivers returned to their same team from the previous season. This time around, there will be five rookies and a sixth driver with less than a year experience.

There’s also been some shuffling of drivers on the biggest teams, the most notable being 7-time champion Lewis Hamilton signing with Ferrari after spending 12 years with Mercedes. Hamilton now shares a garage with Charles Leclerc, who won three Grands Prix last year and is one of just a handful of candidates with a shot at capturing this year’s Driver’s Championship.

It’s expected that Leclerc will be faster than Lewis to start the year, as the Stevenage native adjusts to a new car he had almost no hand in developing. While four-time defending champion Max Verstappen and Lando Norris are the favorites for 2025, Leclerc has shown great pace and is virtually certain to win some races this year. The numbers for Australia suggest this may happen sooner than later – but it may actually be pointing to Lando’s McLaren teammate, Oscar Piastri, who was just signed to a new contract extension right before this post went live. Could he become the first Aussie to win his home Grand Prix?

Leclerc = 58, Oscar Piastri = 58 and 176, Charles Leclerc = 176, 343, and 83, Oscar Jack Piastri = 343 and 83

The green flag drops a span of 343 days after the last Total Solar Eclipse:

"Total solar eclipse" = 1212 (Sumerian)

In my post on Oscar Piastri’s first win in Hungary last year, I talked about how it was synced to Oscar Pistorius.

The Australian Grand Prix falls 12 years, 1 month, 2 days after Oscar Pistorius murdered his girlfriend:

"Oscar Pistorius" = 1212 (Sumerian)

It will also be a span of 1 year, 2 months, 12 days after he was released from prison:

In 2020, a Total solar eclipse began Brown Lunation # 1212. The race will be a span of exactly 222 weeks later and Eclipse = 222.

Pistorius was released during Brown Lunation # 1249:

Piastri will be 1249 weeks old for his home Grand Prix:

Sunday falls 1 year, 70 days after his release. Moon170.

With the wildfires in Los Angeles and all the recent air disasters, Kobe Bryant has been an important character to the news so far this year. See my Kobe Bryant playlist on YouTube to see how he’s connected to so many big stories. In 2006, Kobe scored the second-most points in a single game in NBA history with 81. It just so happened to be his 666th game.
