The Formula 1 season has really kicked off now the days of testing in Barcelona are behind us. Mercedes emerged from those two weeks as title favourites once more, but who will be top next Sunday in Melbourne? In F1 Social Check you'll see what all drivers and teams are up to as we prepare for another F1 season.

Alfa Romeo honour female employees

While Formula 1 is a sport typically dominated by men, Alfa Romeo Racing used International Women's Day on Sunday to honour all of its female employees - some more known like test driver Tatiana Calderon, others are more behind the scenes. A great initiative from Alfa!

Grosjean smiling his way to Melbourne

Romain Grosjean, the man who has had the worst of pit stop fortunes in the past two Australian Grands Prix, is on his way back to Melbourne again - we hope he can at least finish the race this time!

How's your French, Daniel?

Quick-fire Ocon

Ahead of his comeback season in F1 after a year away, Renault sat down Esteban Ocon for a round of quick-fire questions with their new driver. Questions range from his favourite era of F1 to his favourite type of cheese!

The Formula 1 released a video of the sport's full line-up for the 2020 season, having them all line up in orderly fashion as the build-up to Melbourne continues. In the video, keep an eye on Daniel Ricciardo as the camera goes past him! 

Magnussen vs. wild

Not all drivers are just focussed on the Australian Grand Prix nine days from now. Kevin Magnussen is Australia already, but only to explore the country's endless nature!
