Not quite the classic one had hoped for but I have to say the field looks very even. How many in here expected Trulli to lose his position in the final corner? The field looks extremely even, could be an even tighter season than last year but I yet have to find a reason to care. Somewhat drawn towards BMW, Williams and of course Alonso. Let's see

Your right about not much change in a week too. I wonder how much Toyota has spent this week to figure out their problems. Rlaf still looks to be slow, as expected by my, at least Trulli was able to get up to 8th.
M$, Barri, Massa and DC changed engines ;)
Well done Fisico!
Could be a good race actually.
where's petrol? tell me how bad Williams are going to be again, oh you wise sage. :mad:
I'm still standing by my prediction that BMW will be ahead by seasons end.
TOIT can forget any title hopes. Best to give the titles to a Michelin team now!
Great start by Alonso!!!
Bravo Fisico.
And congratz to Aguri with another finish.
Sadly, with tyre changes, we are back to the days of 'waiting for the stops'. I fear more races will be like this than Bahrain.
BTW Toyota are hardly using their tyres, they cannot generate grip.
Have TOIT been protested yet about the flexing wings? It is clear from the on board.
Am warming to Aguri ...

Ferrari have agreed to scrap their 'flexy' rear wing ahead of the Australian Grand Prix following a quiet word from the FIA.
The FIA were forced into action regarding the Italian outfit's rather flexible, and therefore illegal, rear wing after receiving a letter of protest from Ferrari's rivals. Eight teams are believed to have signed the letter, with Red Bull, who use Ferrari engines, and Toro Rosso, RBR's B-team, the only exceptions.
According to reports, Ferrari have now conceded that they had misinterpreted the regulations governing the cars' wings and had assured their rivals that they would use modified wings at the next race, the Australian GP.
And in return, the eight teams have agreed not to protest the outcome of today's Malaysian GP, which they had threatened to do prior to Ferrari's compliance.
The FIA have also committed to do a thorough check on whatever wing the Italian outfit brings to Melbourne in two week's time.

Well done to the Fish, but can he keep it up?
Sad day for the Williams boys. Ther're some tracks that certain drivers shouldn't bother with. For Webber, it's Sepang.
Can't stand the colours of half of the grid. Someone get rid of all that red/black/grey shit for crying out loud.
This track should have produced close racing under the current regs and yet it was boring. Hope the season unfolds a bit more interestingly. What about Rubhino, eh? Will he be the new Jacques?
Bring back Minardi. I want something to keep me interested.
Well predicted :D
Now he needs to win a race in europe!
Money and business seem to be adept in ruining a good show..
What of KL ...
- Massa has been found out
- winter testing was right, Albert Park was an anomaly, TOIT are quickest
- go slow after Q3 quickest lap should never have been allowed in the first place, bloody dangerous.
Should be another vintage year and isn't it great to see the drivers DRIVING the cars (I refer back to young Felipe).

Anyone hoping that Toyo fails is wasting his time. They were quick at both circuits and were capable of running with the Maclarens in Malaysia. Thats telling you something.
Hamilton's driving style where he tends to slide the car through the corners may not pay off in these times of no driver aids. Kovalainen's style seems more suited. We'll see at season's end.
