Cheers mate, i didn't know either!

I don't think the Merecedes is ready to challenge for the title yet, no matter HOW good Rosberg and Schumacher are.

Apparently Ferrari are changing the engines in both of their cars before the race. Problems already?

Conclusion after 30 laps: B O R I N G new rules have again no effect

Fantastic drive so far from Fernando, and Ferrari looking pretty solid!

Shame for Vettel, he's driven a perfect race

---

Schumacher's done very well I think, kept Nico honest on his first time back. Lotus have been nothing short of fantastic, Heikki even put in a bit of a fight!

Unlucky that Trulli had to retire on the last lap. Lotus' pace isn't too bad in the end.

I just hope the Ferrari doesn't win most races again this season. Anyone but ferrari.

I didn't realise how dull Legard and Brundle are until i started listening to Croft and Villeneuve (JV is not the best, but then he was just standing in for Ant).

conclusion after the race: B O R I N G

We´ll have to wait if the rules have some effect... Bahrain is an AWFUL circuit, even the drivers complained about the track... In Melbourne we´ll have a funnier race.

Great race for Ferrari, shame for Vettel, he atleast deserved a podium, not too bad for Mercedes but they have to improve... Good for Lotus, the only new team that finished the race.

not only boring, loooong races.............. pffff

Drawing conclusions from one race. That's pretty shallow.

I thought the race was ok. Lots of room for people to play with the strategies yet. I reckon that if someone had put soft tyres with 10-12 laps to go a lot of places could've been made.

Shame about Vettel, he looked very handy for a win until his car started to have problems. Superb race from Alonso though. Kept Massa in check all the time.
