F1 Bahrain

Looks to be a night or twilight affair as quali and race set to start at 1800 (Sat and Sun), which is good as it's 1100 EDT. A good civilized hour,

Vettel Alonso and Massa have all been good at this track with 2 or 3 wins each. Maybe the feisty Massa can score a win here this time out

What a difference a year makes. New faces in Q3, familiar ones missing. Love the night circuit.

If you want to watch the skysports live feed online it's here.

Watch F1 Grand Prix TV - Practices, Qualifying and Races Live Stream Online

It's in adobe flash format and most computers have that or you can download it for free.

Race starts in a few minutes and the skysports crew will be walking around in the grid and pits talking to people before and after the race.

Dodo needs to be perma parked. I guess his female parts tried to find a mate...


Aside from that - anything I'd say about this race would be the same I would of said before the season even started. Loving the new rules package. Only regret is the SC coming out.

Likely to see more of these type of accidents. The new noses are like a ramp.

Epic race.

Anyone who says F1 is boring these days must be watching something different to what I'm watching. There was a LOT of wheel to wheel racing today. Very entertaining.

I said last week F1was boring. I stand corrected this week. Epic battles, often between teammates all the way back to 12th spot for most of the race. Hoped Massa could have gotten higher, caught out by the safety car.

That was the best race since Brazil in 2008 when Massa won (the race), only to lose (the championship) to Hamilton on the last corner of the last lap of the last race of the season.

Best race in a decade. I completely lost track of the exhaust sound. Guess I'm getting used to it. And that idiot Maldonado - I know he brings huge money to the team, but he just isn't fit to drive in F1, in my view.

That was one of the best races I have watched in some time. Nice to see Force India on the podium and Williams doing so well.

Ferrari this year is tragic. Seeing Fred in the post race interview was disheartening. The motor must really be underpowered compared to the Merc. Kimi will probably cruise until the car gets more competitive.
