Great event but is a shame about the heavy handed security on Walker Straight after the race. Elbowing and pushing people who were only taking photos of cars they had paid a lot of money to see and then threatening to smash people's phones was a poor ending to what had been a great weekend. I have never seen that at any F1 race I've ever been too anywhere in the world. No announcements were made that the main straight wad closing just score in of security guards holding linked seems and changing "move. Move. Move" and then telling people that they would smash their phones if they kept taking photos. Sadly three police were following security so I can only think this was a Victorian government way of managing events. Still in shock. Dangerously overzealous security made this an unsafe event.
