Bahrain Grand Prix 2012, Sakhir - Race 4/20

[Freakbro]

Don't talk about football in this thread please...I've got motd2 to watch

 

[Varsh]

Come on Kimi!

 

[Freakbro]

It's nice to see racing for P1, rather than a run away by one driver or another.

Absolutely

 

[Flibster]

Thats the Raikkonen that I've missed for the last couple of years.
Bring on the interviews!

Kimi was almost 30km/h faster with drs open.

Redbull really need to sought out their straighline speed.

 

[utajoker]

do mclaren make the last stop?

yes!

just about.

 

[DBT85]

Still 5.4 from Mclaren

 

[Glaucus]

Still not a fast pit stop. Hub/nut/gun needs a redisign. It's not as if this is the first weekend with the same issue. Always left rear as well.

 

[SPARC]

3rd time lucky.

 

[utajoker]

hamilton should be in 5th place about 6 seconds ahead of button if he had proper pit stops.

 

[Irish_Tom]

Jesus, even when they don't **** it up it's still a dog-slow stop.

 

[dannyjo22]

I feel for Hamilton, he's sorted out his consistency and again was faster than button but they end up with nothing.

 

[Flibster]

Unsafe release for Alonso?
Straight into Perez's path.

 

[muon]

Mclaren adding 1-2 seconds to make sure things go right?

 

[Glaucus]

Come on, pit kimi get the undercut.

 

[utajoker]

hammy jumps massa, just.

 

[DBT85]

A unique rear jack from Lotus

 

[Flibster]

Mclaren adding 1-2 seconds to make sure things go right?

Seemed like it. I'd rather lose 2 seconds by slowing everything down to ensure it all goes right than 8 secodns scrabbling for another wheelnut or gun.

Yup. Alonso under investigation for Unsafe release.

 

[Skillmister]

Track is absolutely filthy everywhere

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

Here we go, lets see how this will work!
Cheering for Kimi today!

Agree with Brundle tbh, should have pitted Kimi for undercut.
