Bahrain Predictions

Post by alvaro3d »

It's has been a great season so far and I can't wait for this weekend so I open this thread so we can discuss some predictions about the Bahrein GP

Pole and Win the race has repeated in the first three races maybe in this one too

Did it twice Brawn GP, did it once Red Bull, maybe is time for Toyota to be up at front with both cars and get their first 1-2, it would be great, altough another Red Bull 1-2 with Webber up front would be nice too.

Do you think that Pre season testing at Bahrein by Toyota will give any advantage? My impression is that not too much because of the sandstorms.

Ferrari fans will hate me but I guess a fourth double 0 points by Ferrari with Kimi DNF and Massa 10th or lower

Force India first points of the season by Sutil, after Piquet and Nakajima takes out 5 cars on the first corner they will be:
Kubica, Kimi, Heiki, Alonso (taken out by Nelson of course) and Bourdais

.............Altough it would be great for your bets a win by Nelsinho it pays even more than Sutil!! :shock: :shock: at least here in Chile

Is it that time already?

I'm betting for Toyota or Williams. They have to pull something out of the hat before everyone else gets on the double-decker and wipes them off. No KERS for any of them, and I think Bahrain has a long straight where KERS could help. Whomever runs it might have a slight performance advantage.

So: Trulli or Rosberg. Another cock-up by Ferrari for at least one of the cars. And Kubica sandblasted off the track by some freak accident.

My prediction? Somebody will score points in the so-called nosecone destruction championship.

Kimi podium, Massa abducted by terrorists and held for ransom of $2m in the ex-Super Aguri motorhome--Brazil tries to find its sniper team and discovers that it doesn't have one.

Oh, you mean in reality... :D

Not likely. It's only been a week since Shanghai and Domenicalli has admitted that the Maranellos are going to struggle in Bahrain.
