Just a good race.

Hamilton did a great job, he also managed to save his Mclaren from an off the track trip.

Alonso was involved in an early crash with Barrichelo, a bad tire decision and a spin that ended his race.

Vettel involved in little accidents, one resulting in a puncture to his rear tire.

Next… Italy, Alonso and Massa must have to make a great race.

Great race again, I hope that races with no rain can be as entertained as this first 4 races (baharin excluded), a lot of changes, strategies and overtaking.

Alonso made an extra effort from the back, because he jump started and was penalized.

Great victory for Button! he didn’t make a mistake and was able to get the win.

Again Hamilton involved in strange moves in the track and the pit lane.

Rosberg again ahead of Schumi.

Vamonos a España!

Vettel after 2 DNF’s (when he was leading the race), at last finish a race in this season and in the top. If he keep these pace he will be the new champion, because we can see that Red Bull is racing strong in every circuit of these season.

Alonso got problems with his car in the finishing laps of tha race and gets zero points, what a shame. And in my opinion Massa blocked him again.

Lewis Hamilton made an illegal move trying to block Petrov and he didn’t get penalized.

The best part of all this, is that in 3 races we have 3 different winners and great podiums. Let’s go to China!

Great race!, now everyone can forget about Bahrain, and lets hope that the coming races are like this one.

In my opinion Ferrari made a bad decision keeping the drivers in the track with old tyres and Massa frustrated all the efforts of Fernando Alonso.

Great call from Mclaren and Button, that early stop made the difference.

Horrible move from Webber, that made him and Hamilton lost some valuable points.

Kovalinen finishes another race with Lotus and Hispania finished their first race int he hands of Chandhok.

Australia Podium

Fernando Alonso drove a superbly judged race, as he sped to victory on his debut for Ferrari in Sunday’s Bahrain Grand Prix.

The start of the race began with an unstopable Vettel running smoothly in his Red Bull, Alonso then began to hunt down the German, whose lap times got slower and slower until the moment of truth arrived on Lap 34. That was when technical problems  hit the Red Bull and the Ferrari dived past in the penultimate corner, to grab a lead it never lost.

Lotus was the most succesful team from all the newcomers, with Kovalainen going all the way but 2 laps behind.

A little boring start of the season with splashes of emotion when Vettel’s Red Bull started to fail.
