Inside the final 15 laps and the gaps between the top four remain largely the same. It's all about whether the Mercedes tyres hold on the later into the race we go #F1 #AusGP

Stroll is back on track again? #F1 #MelbourneGP 🏁🏎

The #F1 #AustralianGP leader board is showing both Alonso and Stroll 'in pit', not as 'out'. Are Aston Martin going to put one or both back on track to collect yet more data? πŸ€” 🏁🏎

That was the most efficient VSC ever. I don't even have time to clip it

Perez lost a barge board, vsc called, Marshall grabbed it. Back racing. All within a lap. Damn #F1 #AusGP

Ferrari may have a sick-ass rotisserie wing, but it still has its same old strategists

Poor Isack Hadjar.For a second year in a row, he won't be completing the #F1 #MelbourneGP, this time because of the engine conking out, argh! 🏁🏎

Only on lap 7, and Verstappen is already up to 11th place from 20th. Hamilton is also lurking in 3rd behind Leclerc and Russell. Things are getting spicy πŸ˜€πŸπŸŽ #F1 #MelbourneGP

Checked out #NorwichSciFest today ahead of manning one of the (aviation-related) stands tomorrow. Great talk from Guy Gratton + Mushfiqul Alam (Uni of Cranfield) on Building (+ testing!) the Aircraft of Tomorrow. Conundrum: longer wings would reduce drag, but flexibility would create instabilities

#Norwich peeps, come find me on one of the stands in The Forum on Wednesday 18th February as part of #NorwichSciFest. Get involved in some fun activities connecting #STEM and airports/aviation (although I'm still always up for a chat about #volcanoes #geoscience #acoustics) πŸ§ͺπŸ›«

Happy 150th Birthday to Romerike FolkehΓΈgskole (a residential performing arts school and so much more!). I spent an amazing, life-changing study abroad year there over 30 years ago!
