Grand Prix Frenzy

Prior to the 2005 Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne Minardi owner Paul Stoddard and friends showed off a couple of their F1 cars. With Stoddard himself in one Minardi and Christijan Albers in another, Antonio Pizzonia in a Williams BMW, Marcos Ambrose in a Ford V8 and Mark Skaife in a Holden V8 Swanston St and St Kilda Rd were used as a mini testing track, the card shooting up and down. For added crowd delight Mark Webber also made an appearance being chauffeured around in a BMW.
