    Force Indias top in the speed trap so they'll be a pain in the arse to get by, especially for Webber who's 19th.

    Great drive from Britney, he's handling the job of being Hamilton's teammate better than anyone would have expected. Turns out the guy can drive.

    I fear a Massa train would likely be ruined by DRS.

    Anyone hear on the commentary that this could be a night race from next year? Also, Pirelli are close to announcing a 5 year contract extension.

    Exactly what the Crofty one said. Doesn't make sense to me either, unless they try and time it so we get it in an evening prime-time slot, and try to get more viewers.

    I have heard that Bernie's also trying to make it the season opener again <doh>, but it's probably the same propaganda that he throws about to the local press every race, happens for Melbourne and a few others.

    Bahrain has to be a week after another race, gives it less time for the tension to build up.

    But Bernie would probably tell you go to hell with that frame of mind.

    But lo and behold!

    Great pole for Rosberg. Will do well to get a podium with tyre wear, but a copycat performance of what Hamilton did last week will be very good for him.

    It's... just... what... how...

    I literally do not understand what Bernie is saying.

    EDIT: Don't know if anyone's posted this yet:

    Just saw that, his comments on MP's today were hilarious if anyone's heard them. To paraphrase: "Who are these MP's? Nobody knows who they are, they turn up once a year to moan at us about Bahrain, get their name in the paper, then disappear for a year"

    According to IntelligentF1 (which isn't always accurate but I've yet to see anything better), Ferrari should dominate this race.


    F1Fanatic thinks Rosberg will go backwards very quickly.

    Can't see Hamilton being 1.1s slower than Rosberg and back with the Williams/Torro Rosso's.
