    Does anyone know where one could find the grid photo from Bahrain with the drivers by their cars?

      I agree with several people on here
      1st. Bahrain and every new track sucks to me, they are flat and boring and street circuts really suck as they do not showcase the awesome speed and braking of the cars Spa and Monza are by far the two best tracks IMHO

      2nd Refueling has taken all the strategy out of F1... qualifying sucks, splash of fuel and go set fast lap, no guessing what the other teams are doing.

      3rd Vettel was so damn fast compare to the field and espcially compare to Weber... how was weber so slow compared to his teamate.

      4th I think Alonso will dominate Felipe this year. Alonso has such an aggresive almost angry driving style when he needs to, and I dont see that fire in Massa. I think Massa is a fantastic driver but head to head in race conditions I would put my money on Alonso every time. I really think he will be the force of the scuderia, and he is a good fit for that team, he has that bravado that ferrari is all about. Felipe is just to damn nice.

                Yeah, short cuts fricken redicoulus.
                How about some decent tracks instead, and refueling.

                  Webber started 6th, lost out to Shumi and Button at turn 1, running 8th. He overtook Button back on the first lap before things had settled down, was stuck behind Shumi til his first stop and then Button timed his stop better and leap-frogged him at the second stop.
                  And he was 6th on the grid because he made a big mistake in sector 2 of his qualifying lap, he said he was surprised that he ended up 6th and took that as encouragement because apparently the mistake was so costly he thought he would've ended up worse than 6th.

                  I agree that Webber isn't as good of a qualifier as Vettel, but during the race he is usually just as fast.

                      It depends where that second of speed comes, and I doubt it is on the straight away(Merc is a better engine), which really is where most of the passing takes place. Same thing happened to Fisi at Spa last year when Kimi got around him during the restart, he was faster that him through every part until the straightaway when Kimi would hit the KERS button and stay out of reach.

                      The way to fix the problem with problem is build better tracks. This past Indy race in Brazil was awesome because they had the longest straightaway of the season and it aided passing extremely. However Bernie and Tilke doesn't understand that.

                        no, but they will put in a few short cuts, loop-de-loops and fire rings of death to aid passing

                          Might as well add a rule that you can fit a turbo to your car, but you are only allowed to hit boost 11 seconds a lap.

                            ^Actually it was 6.6.

                            But look at the classic tracks, ie long straights and such, and the racing is great.

                              Yeah everyone talks about how we need to fix the racing until we get to Spa, Monza, Suzuka, and Brazil, then they shut up again.

                                I think everyone talks about 'lack of racing' after a series has the championship decided by 1 pt. in two consecutive season then drastically changes the rules.
