Bahrain F1 GP

But Mika actually managed to get his championships with McLaren. It's always a crap-shoot really, a roll of the dice on whether McLaren will last out the championship.

However, in this session they will have to carry the same amount of fuel that they plan to start the race with.

This is what a lot of Ecclestone critic is using to criticize the current qualifying format.

they (the critic) are saying that the teams are just burning off (read wasting and not green friendly) fuel running around the track waiting for the right moment to make that qualifying run. IMO somewhat true, maybe F1 should revise this.

what's your take on this?

Great Race * Bahrain....

1 - Alonso
2 - Schumi
3 - Kimi

Great battle between MS & Alonso all throughout the 57 laps. Critical lahat ng moves, just a mistake could mean the race result....

Partida si Kimi, come from behind....really behind coz he's at the back of the grid nung start.

Ganda ng race.....looking forward to the next....

good strategy on mclaren on having a 1 stop kay kimi...

galing ng alonso-schumi battle! heck, alonso won this one with a lot of help from his team to strategize his last pitstop!

dami ring magandang labanan in the middle of the pack... klien, heidfeld, dc, etc! sayang si villenueve... umapoy yung kotse!

medyo ganda rin ng strategy ng mclaren... naka full tank siguro si kimi during the start of the race... tapos from 22nd naka take advantage siya sa opening grid... nasa 13th na yata siya after the 1st lap.

Sayang si Massa. Made a move. Didn't make it. Flat spotted his tires. Pitted to change tires. Lug nut got stuck. Out of the points tuloy sya.

Kimi from last place to third was phenomenal. Sanay na rin sya dito hehe.

Nico Rosberg. 2 points on his first race. Fastest lap pa.

Mas gusto ko qualifying ngayon. Di sya boring compared dati. Daming cars on track. Nakakasira ng araw ang trafik.

I'd be a bit Jeremy Clarkson on this and tell those "environmentalists" to **** off. What next, F1 drivers running (on foot) around the track so as not to "waste fuel"?

Yesterday's race results show that the top3 teams are Ferrari, Renault and McLaren. They're all equally competitive. Honda is not far behind, though.

Kimi is a real phenomenon; Fernando is indeed championship caliber; And Michael is back!

This 2006 season is exciting!

yup kimi is running full on his mclaren...

solid race from the middle packers...
JV before his car caught fire, Rosberg...wow a kimi in the making tong batang ito...
DC showing some old flashes

Alonso is freaking fast...he shut the door on MS with 4-5 laps to go....
MS got only a chance to make move but foiled...

knowing MS he lurks at alonso to make a mistake but Alonso did not even twitched his eyelip...galing....
