1. Lewis 2. Kimi (don't think he will break his bad luck here) 3. Heikki 4. Kubica 5. Massa (do or die now) Boring choice's I know.. Bahrain GP factfile Monday, 31 March 2008 00:00 Sakhir by numbers Circuit length: 3.362 miles Type of circuit: Purpose-built permanent track Track designer: Hermann Tilke Number of laps: 57 Lap record: 1m30.252s (Michael Schumacher, Ferrari, 2004) Last year's pole time: 1m32.652s (Felipe Massa, Ferrari) Fastest corner: Turn 12 - flat-out sweeping right-hander, 160mph Overtaking opportunities: Average. The typically Tilke-designed slow final corner onto a long back straight means turn one is a realistic shot to try an overtaking move. Other than that, the twisty infield section means passing opportunities are limited Usual weather: F1's only desert event ensures it is invariably always a hot and sunny weekend. Chances of a first corner crash: Low. Although a long run down to a tight first turn could be a recipe for chaos, there has been none of note as yet... From ITV
1. Kimi (Of course) 2. Massa ( his job is on the line, he better do well) 3. Kubica 4. Hamilton 5. Heidfeld
Hmmmmmm........I think you will see a pre race parade of two of the most incredible Ferraris on the planet, one old (1960's), and one very new. Both owned by one of FChat's absolute finest. I only hope they show this on the SpeedTV broadcast. If not I am sure someone will post photos. Carbon, am I right? My prediction: 1) Kimi 2) Phil 3) Nick 4) Heikki 5) Lewis or Robert
Ah yes, that's it. Our very own Napolis and his P4/5, aka Enzo (which is what gets Carbon excited). Yeah, we can only hope Speed shows that. Somebody better post a pic on here.
Another boring and realistic prediction: 1.Kimi 2.Massa 3.Heikki 4.Hammi 5.Trulli 6.Quick Nick 7.Rosberg 8.Kubica
Just from playing it on my PS3 it got some really iffy corners. There are like 2 nasty hairpins, and a few more nasty corners you can't see the apex. Hard to find any kind of decent rhythm and flow. I think only China is worse. Tilke is a troll. Coming back to Massa: Having won it, shows that he is good at this track, agreed. But the tricky corners combined with some sand blowing onto the track and no TC would make me think otherwise. We'll see.
1. Hamilton 2. Kimi 3. HK 4. Heidfeld 5. Rosberg 6. Kubicka 7. Webber 8. Barrichello Massa will drive a safe race to avoid another DNF but he won't be on pace as a result.
Good point. Just use a softer setup, kinda like a rain setup and the car becomes much more forgiving. Also less fast, but it would increase chances for making it through dramatically.
1. Davidson 2. Sutil 3. Piquet 4. Sato 5. Glock What? This is the race where Super Aguri turns it all around...Hooray for Takumo! Seriously though, just seems that it has become a race of which order the top 6, really the top 4, are going to finish in. Although my hearts with the Scuderia, I wish the teams were more competitive. It would make for a better race.
