Re: 2012 Formula One Bahrain GPYeah the wheel guns sound awesome, pretty sure everything in F1 is designed to sound as loud and sexual as possible.(Original post by Marc Fiorano)

Re: 2012 Formula One Bahrain GPAre you kidding?(Original post by Mike Hunt is nice)
Sebastian Vettel has been very unlucky this season
Schumacher is the prime example of being "very unlucky". -

The wheel guns do sound amazing, but nothing compares to the V10's though.

Re: 2012 Formula One Bahrain GPIndeed, he looked incredibly laid back though, chatting away to his engineers and stuff. Was happy to come over and sign things, do photos as well. Have to admit, I was a little star struck having idolised him since the age of 6.

Re: 2012 Formula One Bahrain GPIf you'd "idolised him since the age of 6" you'd know that Schumacher has a habit of that.(Original post by DannyBoy123)

Re: 2012 Formula One Bahrain GPDefine "deserves" in your context.(Original post by Mike Hunt is nice)
But im a big Seb Vettel fan and he's not having the flying start he deserves this season either.
I'm assuming that means P1 and romping away with the win?

Re: 2012 Formula One Bahrain GPOf course, but was good to see that he didn't really seem affected by it unlike a few on the grid *cough* Hamilton *cough*(Original post by f1mad)

Re: 2012 Formula One Bahrain GPWow, I saw on twitter today that Ferrari have fewer threads on the wheels vs the rest of the field in order to save time (3 vs 6-8) and you can really hear that with the the wheel guns...(Original post by DannyBoy123)

Also, someone spotted that the Ferrari lights look a little bit like Wall-E

Re: 2012 Formula One Bahrain GPThat's amazing! What type of pass did you buy for this weekend?(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 GPIt's going ahead.(Original post by bluenose14)
Should this be going ahead? Don't they have a dictator in charge who is killing protestors?
However, I do feel the media are over-hyping this quite a lot. -

Re: 2012 Formula One Bahrain GPIn what way? People are arguing that letting the race go ahead is basically telling the world that everything is alright when it isnt. Some things are more important than sport.(Original post by f1mad)
