Awesome! I am loving this season so far. I'm really pleased to see Mercedes taking both front-row positions. Leave it to Ross Brawn to develop a sneaky new technology that nobody else had thought of.
 
I think this is the best opportunity for Sauber to register a win here. I am still not really convinced with Mercedes in the long run. I'd be happy with kimi if he finishes from where he starts.

Kobayashi is my favorite to win, and Button will be in contention too.
 
Boy, I remember back in the days when I used to skip church on Sunday mornings just to watch Juan Pablo Montoya run on that FW46 WilliamsF1 BMW.

I can say that watching him win the Monaco GP was one the happiest days of my life.

Shame he decided to join the NASCAR packs just to end up crashing every other race or finishing 18th :\

He just seemed disenchanted with F1... and all the 'bullshit' that comes with it. He still says there's nothing like driving an F1 car but he seems to be having more fun in NASCAR.

Jeez. Left a wheel nut loose on Schumacher. First car out after running so well in second.

Very disappointing... I was actually hoping for a Mercedes 1-2 just so the McLaren drivers finish lower and maybe help Alonso keep his points lead. :whiste:
 
Ferrari didn't have the pace to hang on to Hamilton. 🙁 They had a better strategy than Lotus though. :sneaky: How long was Raikkonen's last stint?
 
It was a pretty exciting race all things considered. Bahrain as a circuit is boring, but if we get battles like these it'll spice things up.

After hearing Eric Boullier's post-race interviews, I can confirm that he is an idiot and that's why Kimi isn't having the ability to shine as he could. The car's clearly got the pace.

boring? except for the 1st-time winner, there were fights all over the place.

LOL. I don't remember that posting that. Maybe I was pissed off that Kimi had a terrible race.

Yeah, I liked the race very much. So much action and very clean wheel to wheel racing.. all the drivers did a very good job of finishing the race without major incidents.
 
Yeah, other than what happened to Kimi that was a whale of a race. It's great, after the last couple of seasons of Red Bull domination, to have real competition at the top.
 
Great race! Congrats to Nico Rosberg for his first F1 victory! Too bad about the pit debacle with Schumacher's wheel. Would have liked to see him on the podium or possibly with a race win!
 
Kobayashi also set the fastest lap time for the race, with Verne having the second best. This F1 season is off to an 'interesting' start so far.
