Amy, Paul, Jeremy, Alex and plenty of others have been keeping themselves busy in Melbourne this week, as F1 prepares for its second race of the season. We love meetups and we love behind-the-scenes information at Sidepodcast, so we're creating a thread just for such discussions.

There will be one post each day from Thursday through to Monday. If you're in the area, or have questions for anyone who is, this is the place to share thoughts and questions. With so many people on the ground reporting back the sights and sounds of the GP weekend, we're looking forward to experiencing full Formula 1 experience from our arm chairs.
