The Official Bahrain GP 2009 Thread***Spoilers***

[stifler]

Ok guys and gals. Favourites?

Ill be going for Rosberg on the podium, Webber for Pole and Button for the win.

(I don't think I'll be doing the local food this race, just lots of Jaffa Cakes)

[Lord Croker]

Glock on the podium, Button to win, Kimi to actually pull his finger out and do something

[Muzzlehatch]

1. Button
2. Hamilton
3. Rosberg
4. Barrichello

[Miss Pitstop]

Button to win, and a serving of pitta stuffed with falafel! I'll be away with the TVRCC so I'll miss the live banter though

What is the Pistonheads "Motorsport Sections" fascination with Rosberg? Is it his blonde locks? He has a quick car and an experienced team behind him, and along with Ferrari and Mclaren struggling, he has shown what exactly come race time? Kubica is in the same position - there reputations are getting found out so far this year and this surely shows why they are not being touted for a move to Mclaren or Ferrari.

Vettel has at least shown what he is capable of in a quick car and Buemi has also impressed. Rosberg and Kubica better get there fingers out.

Rosberg is the better of the two Williams drivers, and the car is finally quite competitive. Therefore he could be in with a shout if things go well.

Bear in mind that my predictions for all the 2009 GPs were made before Melbourne, and so far I've been lucky enough to get a 50% hit rate of top-4 finishers.

You're absolutely right. That's exactly what Vettel needed to to in China, and good for him, he did it.

[Not Ideal]

Buemi to score again

Rosberg goes well at Bahrain. Remember his first ever F1 race. Lost his nose on the first lap, pitstop, came through the field to finish in 7th(?) And set the fastest lap by quite a margin. He seems to be a bit like Kimi thoiugh, everything has to be perfect for him to shine.

Not sure you can blame Kimi(apart from aus), the cars has pup tendencies and there will be no change until Barcelona, presuming they did their sums right for the new parts.

1)Barrichello
2)Vettel
3)Hamilton
4)Button
5)Webber

Yet despite the Williams being competitive, and McLaren starting the season with a dog, McL have more than twice the number of points.

Thats because they have a "real" driving talent that is showing how good he really is in an average car.

I think it will be Brawn from Brawn from RedBull from RedBull from Toyota fro......
