F1 Manager Revised 2006 Season - We have a winner! Season complete

Looking really good so far, nicely done Lewis on topping 2 sessions.

2006 Bahrain Grand Prix - Free Practice

Italian driver Giancarlo Fisichella recorded the fastest time in free practice for the Bahrain Grand Prix with a 1:30.897 in his Williams. He was closely followed by Ralf Schumacher in the BMW and Juan-Pablo Montoya in the Red Bull. Pedro De La Rosa was the quickest test driver, finishing in 7th ahead of both Kimi Raikkonen and David Coulthard.

so the guy who desperately wanted to have this restarted appears to have vanished? Lmao

Hyped for quali!

Not bad for Sutil being ahead of Wurz in free practice. Let's get on to qualifying to see what happens next.

It would appear so! I've somehow managed to take over haha. The Bahrain race has been won and qualifying will be posted tomorrow morning

BMW Sauber
Seems for us Ralf did put a great lap to go P2 in FP, but De La Rosa wasn't far off which he's still in top 10 and that's good to hear. We're looking forward to the quali and race.

Super Aguri
Some of our drivers still posting good pace, but there's no changes which kindly is not good. Although, looking forward to the quali and race should give us some hope for the good weekend overall.

Toro Rosso

Happy to be onboard with this team, while still getting to know everyone the team is busy working in Bahrain. A very good 9th place for Coulthard, Doornbos is staying a little behind in 15th. Let's see what we can do in qualifying!

If you are racing, keep on racing and get some points!

2006 Bahrain Grand Prix - Qualifying

Giancarlo Fisichella picked up where he left off in free practice by qualifying on pole for the season opener in Bahrain. Joining him on the front row is Toyota's Jenson Button with Ralf Schumacher and Lewis Hamilton on the second row.

Toyota

What an effort by Jenson to get himself on the front row of the grid. Fingers crossed we can score some big points from that position. Also extremely happy to see Mark Webber in 7th, gives us a great chance in the race if we can get the strategy right.

of course, when it matters, our worst performance yet...

Yes Fisis that's how it's done!

Also, corrected me if I'm wrong John but in my head I thought we had Fisichella and Da Marta as our main driver lineup? It's not a problem for this race just want to double check

The qualifying for us was great, but not so smoothly. Ralf did manage 3rd which is great to get him on second row for the race. Although for Nick it wasn't the great result he wanted but he'll give it everything for the race to score some points. We're definitely looking forward to the race and it should be exciting.

Super Aguri
Good work on these guys, the pace wasn't there and we'll start on last row. It should be much exciting but we don't expect to catch other cars as we think it will be impossible.

Oh! Good spot. Put the wrong driver shortcut in on the excel sheet. It is Da Matta I think

Honda
As we are the only team who supplies Honda, 13th and 14th isn't something we quite wanted for the result. But still, everything doesn't seem too bad for us.

Ferrari
Could be better, but still a solid effort by both gentlemen. We've worked towards some good race pace as shown in practice. Now let's hope that'll actually convert into the race.
