Least Karum got a lap time, bless him, he did well to drive round considering he said his bottom doesn't even touch the seat properly as it needs adjusting

Adrian keeps on growing and growing on me, great driver I believe.

Virgins performance was surprising, they seemed quite slow in testing but managed to be quickest out of all 3 new teams.

Great job Vettel and also to Massa, glad he out qualified Alonso

Good Job Macca, they were certainly struggling to find pace, but happy Lewis beat Jenson.

Also mention for Kubica starting 9th in the Renault, not bad.

MASSA¬BEATS ALONSO!!!!
Lewis does well.
Rosberg beats Schumi
Just a shame Vettel beat Webber.

Pretty pleased with things overall!!




ps. I think Rubens is sitting in a good position for the race regarding tyres.

What a massive disappointment that was, looks like it's going to be another long, painful year. I can't believe how slow the FW32 was.

At least I'm happy for Bruno and Karun that they finally made it to Bahrain, got on the grid and in the race for tomorrow.

I'm a bit disappointed with McLaren's speed, because Lewis was 4th and a SECOND behind Vettel, I believe he was on softs too? The whole qualifying two McLarens were slower than Ferrari and Red Bull..... We'll get smarter tomorrow but again, I expected more.

Rubens could be leading the race! Hes sitting 11th with new hards while those in front chew their softs on heavy fuel. Dont write him off!!

They're better on long runs. Struggling over one lap so tomorrow should be better

McLaren car setup for low fuel was not good at all and both drivers obviously really struggled with balance so I hope the cars have a really good setup for fuel. Lewis qualified reasonably well and P4 is respectable bit disappointed with Button's P8 I know he can qualify better hopefully he will handle the tyres well and make up places with the McLarens immense straight line speed giving them an overtaking advantage. Ferrari in a very strong position with exceptional long run pace Red Bull have pace but I think they will destroy their tyres very quickly.

Great qualifying session. This is going to be an epic season, but I MISS KIMI

Yeah it doesn't feel the same way without his care-free, laid back nature and his mumbling.

Could go that way I guess. If the hards can last long enough to do a very long first stint, then the Williams drivers could try for a very short second stint on softs and only make one stop for the entire race. Sutil might try the same thing, depending on how he manages his tyres. I like the fact that we don't know how anything is going to go during the race. It's all very exciting

10th place really sucks this year.

Yep, that care-free attitude and monotone mumbling made him so much cooler than the other drivers.

People are talking about Barrichello being a force tomorrow with his hard tyres.

But Sutil did Q3 on hard tyres. I actually checked, because his times in Q3 were surprisingly slow. Whenever he parked his car at the end of the session, I definetly saw hard tyres. So watch for Sutil tomorrow.


Great lap from Vettel. Over a second faster than Webber. So unless Webber is running hard tyres as well, thats gotta hurt being that much slower. Massa great lap as well. Everyone seemed to be doing the same sector times, but both Vettel and Massa seemed to find something extra somewhere in that middle sector. The race tomorrow will be between the top 3, unless someone on hard tyres has gone un-noticed.

congrats to Vettel, the Redbull is looking strong.
