The race is Button's to lose.

Many said that about China. -

Re: 2012 Formula One Bahrain GPI never said it. I thought it was obvious from Friday and Saturday that Button was struggling with tyre temps. Many people predicted a Red Bull victory, or a Mercedes victory. With Hamilton getting his grid penalty, it means that Button has still started ahead of his team mate at every race at Shanghai going way back to and including the inauguaral race in 2004! -

Re: 2012 Formula One Bahrain GPIceman for pole in Monaco!(Original post by Isambard Kingdom Brunel)
Upcoming races, well Hamilton and the Red Bulls should be in contention in Spain (not Button's best track), and in Monaco, my money is on Schumacher or Raikkonen.

No they did not.Many people predicted a Red Bull victory, or a Mercedes victory.
Wrong. Button qualified behind Barrichello in 2008.With Hamilton getting his grid penalty, it means that Button has still started ahead of his team mate at every race at Shanghai going way back to and including the inauguaral race in 2004! -

He is a respected journo in the middle-east. He got it wrong, sure, but don't question his integrity.And you know that how? What's to say this guy is respected?"Respected journo"
If he is so "respected" how'd he make such a cock-up?"He got it wrong, sure, but don't question his integrity."
Quality reporter, just quality. -

Re: 2012 Formula One Bahrain GPI really hope anyone involved in F1 aren't involved in anything worse, or anything at all apart from yesterdays incident. I had hoped something like this wouldn't happen, but I guess it was bound to..
Hoping for a safe weekend for everyone in Bahrain.

Re: 2012 Formula One Bahrain GPI am so jealous right now! That is amazing!(Original post by DannyBoy123)
Just got back from the track, all looked fine security wise. Got my hat signed by MSC, was nearly run over by Massa on his bike and got a thumbs up from Brundle. Great afternoon.

Re: 2012 Formula One Bahrain GPYeah it was awesome, didn't see Jenson or Lewis which I was annoyed about but had a chat with Kovalainen, and Grosjean after he had done an interview with Sky. Also saw Ferrari and McLaren doing practice pit stops which is an incredible thing to watch up close!
Got some good photos I'll post up later if I get round to it. -
