Firstly I would like to say a bloody well done to Trulli that's one of the best qualifying performances I've seen in a long time! Secondly well done to lewis catching the Brawns I have no idea how he did that. Lewis, Vettel and obviously both Toyota look very good for the race tomorrow!

Congrats to Toyota!!! I hope they win tomorrow, but is there any word on Sutil blocking Webber? You couldnt get more obvious than that, and Webber was on a hot lap.

He has been sent back 3 places

Correction on my guess, 1 lap = 2.9kg around Bahrain
Fuel consumption here is 2.9kg per lap and the fuel effect is 0.35 secs per 10 kg.


So still Red Bull, Toyota and Brawn at the front. With McLaren leading the chasing pack, with Renault and Ferrari just behind. Whilst Williams form is like a yo-yo. However, Ferrari and Red Bull have still to stick on a new diffuser. It's close and it's going to be a cracker season.

So lewis not particularly light. Great quali. GO LEWIS!! tremendous lap for Trulli with that weight, just cant see him keeping it there in the race tho.

Yeh i think its good how Mclaren have come from back of the grid to 4th best team in the space of 3 races.

Button seams proper down also like hes just lost the WDC?

Indeed it it. Renault and McLaren have both pushed hard in terms of development. Ferrari and BMW on the other hand haven't. Development this year is clearly important, because it's a new season even small developments can bring a lot of time.

But here's my interest. Renault, I think have the full DD diffuser. McLaren still have an interim one. I could be wrong, but if so, when does the full one come.
