Bahrain GP 2012 - Sakhir

Another question is did Red Bull burn through a second set of primes that they could have needed in the race?

I guess so.

Schumachers car was not ready, technical problem, DRS was not working

Mclaren apparently set up for running the softs more in the race? Is that the right call?

[zgred]

Could be even excluded from race.

Depends on how everyone else is doing with their tyres. They have had a preference for the softer tyres so far this year but haven't really shown much of an advantage by doing so.

Alonso has saved already a prime option of tyres. He is thinking on the race not the quali.

4 hundredths.

Wow. Kovi was 4 tenths off pipping Hamilton's time. Primes vs options - but still an impressive effort. Wow. Had Vergne's lap been on it, and Kovi found 4 more tenths, Hamilton would've been out!

Quali's looking to be a cracker.

4 hundreths!

I made a typing mistake! Yeesh!

I'm not too sure. I thought they were saving a set of primes in that they felt it would be pointless goin out in Q1 on the primes anyways - because they might not have made the cut into Q2.

Broken DRS flap according to Schumacher.

[myurr]

That McLaren is a lot happier on the options.

[Vasco]

WOW so close between Hamilton, Rosberg and Webber!!!

[SiLo]

The option is also a LOT quicker than the prime.

[myurr]

Grosjean not looking that quick now, either his setup is biased toward the primes or he did his first run on options without us noticing. Only P11.

[NathanOlder]

Anyone's live timing not working on the official site??

[myurr]

Working fine for me at the moment at least.

Q2 looks like it's a much more "normal" spread between 1st and 10th - not as close as in China.
