F1 through the eyes of a speed freak!

Bahrain

I’ll do a full race run through later on, but Massa has taken the race win for the second year in the row.

He took the lead off the line, and maintained it all the way through the race, Kimi grabbed second, and Robert Kubica took the last step on the podium.

Lewis had an appalling start of the line, and bogged down, he went around the first lap in 10th spot behind Fernando Alonso, Lewis was sat right behind the Renault, and it looked like Alonso feathered the throttle, this caused Lewis to run into the back of the car, damaging both cars in the process.

Toyota and Trulli did well, coming in sixth to take the best of the rest spot.

The race was full of incidents, so I will do a full race run through shortly.

    I have something to say about Hamilton’s accident.

    Renault’s engineer showed the telemetry of Alonso’s car and it showed that Alonso at any time put the foot on the brake! Hamilton was much faster and when he hit he put the foot down, giving the impression of Alonso speeding up after breaking. Hamilton miscalculated the overtaking and paid the price!

    Alonso would never jeopardize his race by making Hamilton crash just for the hell of it!

    I guess everybody saw what Hamilton is capable of when he comes from behind.

    Last but not least, McLaren is absolute crap this year, feels like without copying Alonso’s telemetry and tweaks to the car, Hamilton can’t do much!

    Take this McLaren with this stupid policy that the pilots are the same! Hypocrits!!

    Absolutely right. Renault engineers showed how Alonso was accelerating when Hamilton hit his Renault.

    Yup if the Renault/Alonso is not to blame, then I feel sorry for him, he drove a good race with that chunk of rear wing missing.
