Bahrain GP 2012 - Sakhir

[WhiteBlue]

Schumacher the first of the big guns.

But he wastes the first lap, ROS puts 0.5 on him

[myurr]

Schumacher quickest but missed a couple of apexes. Rosberg then bests it by half a second.

[myurr]

Hamilton next up but not looking that quick. I hope they have a lot of fuel on board.

[WhiteBlue]

HAM also 0.5 away

[myurr]

It's the middle sector where they're losing out. I fear they have the wrong downforce level on that car this weekend.

[WhiteBlue]

Vettel still on prime

[myurr]

Hamilton with another slow first sector, presumably a big lock up into turn one?

[myurr]

Replays show a little lock up and lift.

[WhiteBlue]

Button as slow as Hamilton, actualy slower than Schumacher

[WhiteBlue]

Kimi up to P5

[WhiteBlue]

ALO P10
MAS P15

[myurr]

Button as slow as Hamilton, actualy slower than Schumacher

He locked a wheel into turn 10 I think it was, so was perhaps a tenth or two quicker. Still Rosberg looks a lot happier out there. I think the McLaren's were carrying more fuel though, but not enough to cover the entire gap to Rosberg.

Webber and presumably Vettel on their option runs now.

[WhiteBlue]

Webber has a good start on the options and goes to P 2

[myurr]

Clean lap for Webber but still only goes P2 0.4 second back.

[myurr]

Clean run for Vettel as well and he goes P2, just 0.15s back.
