Bahrain GP *spoiled*
 
That was *yawn ZZzz*.:rolleyes:

Not totally boring... There were good passes and most interesting for me was seeing Hamilton from way behind and how he handled the situation he was facing.

The season w/o TC is turning to be really interesting and just levels the playing field.

Eh, there were only one or two passes shown apart from the start, which happens really quickly. Most of the passiing shown was cars lapping Kazuki Nakajima.:p

Next season will be even better with less aero. Drivers are so reluctant to get close to the car in front, and you can't pass unless you do lol.

And they need to dummyproof the buttons on Lewis's steering wheel. Aparently he selected the wrong engine program at the race start.

Actually, I agree the race wasn't that exciting. Kubica 3rd though:thumbup:

Didn't the same thing happen to Heikki, when after overtaking AlonSlow he then got overtaken after making a wrong knob selection... :rofl:

I agree. I fell asleep half way through. I was happy to see Robert Kubica do well in qualifying and getting a podium finish. What do you think of Lewis running into the back of Alonso? Brake check?

I agree, there races are getting boooorrrrring. They have been degrading for years to parades with the occasional spin-out or crash, and its not getting much better yet.
Nice to see BMW on the podium this year though.

At least Max and his nazi girlfriends are keeping things interesting. :rofl:

Yep, he hit the pitlane speed-limiter button. I have a feeling that's what Lewis did in Brazil last year too.

Looks like neither Alonso nor Lewis were to blame for the run in. The center portion of the McLaren bridge-wing broke off just before he crashed into the Renault.

That race was a complete yawn fest. blah.

One of these days there will actually be a "RACE" and not 1 car out front while the others break down or crash and whomever is left winds up on the podium.

blah.
