I am sure we'll see a few scraps between Webber and Heidfeld (sorry julian but I don't think Heidfeld is half a second a lap slower)

Putting Renault and Ferrari aside, I think Williams are doing a good job. If they keep improving they'll be up there with Renault and McLaren very soon.

Funny JV but in you dreams will Michael race in Fiats and in your dreams will Tata sponsor Ferrari

The race wasn't too exciting actually apart from the Ralf-Webber-Heidfeld fight there was nothing exciting. Alonso led from start to finish and behind him was Trulli who surprised me.

Fisichella was wrong, he knew his car lacked grip but Webber could have avoided him.

Ferrari struggled on the Bridgestone tyres but they will recover in time for the next race

It looks like Bridgestone have two problems, slow on the first lap or two and no good in the heat.

So they'll struggle in qualifying and in Bahrain they'll also struggle in the race. It may not be as hot as Malaysia but it is hotter than Europe :wink:

But let me tell you, there is no way that Bridgestone will be able to provide competitive tyres for Bahrain, no way
Just because they were humiliated in Malaysia doesn't mean they'll suddenly find that magic compound that will work. Do you think they were not working 24/7 to make a better tyre ?
All this accelarated programme talk is BS in my view. Since Malaysia, Ferrari had 3 days of testing in Europe. From that data and the data they had in Malaysia they have now figured it out. Give me a break!

The improvement will be gradual and it will take them at least half the season to get a reasonable improvement. Michelin won't be sitting still though.

The tyres wars this year sounds very much like '03

I am starting to think a control tyre might be an idea? What do you guys think? :lol:
