Good job by Kimi and Vettel on Rosberg at the start but Rosberg has made 3 killer overtakes into turn 1 against the Ferrari's. THIS is what we want to see you race like Rosberg! These sparks the cars are making look amazing! EDIT: 16:55, Kimi still looks strong at his current rate he's a challenger for Mercedes. Vettel not so much, my top 4 look good so far.

Yo Seb, thank you for screwing up not only your race but my picks (y)

Seb has sorted my top 4, I expected Kimi to get him still. I bet that felt awesome for Alonso getting the chance to overtake Kimi

Riccardio only just finished!
Hamilton and Rosberg both had brake by wire problems and overheating brakes, exactly like Canada last year... something weird with that how both their brakes die at similar times.
Raikkonen should have won if Ferrari had brought him in earlier.
Cracking drives by both Raikkonen and Rosberg.
Smashing race by Force India with a 2014 car they still got points.
Amazing race by McLaren too, Alonso P11 JUST outside of the points.

Bloody hell 1 more lap and Kimi would've won. Great drive from the drunk Finn. On another note, I could've driven better than Vettel today. What a nut. 4x WDC my butt.

Another exciting Bharain race - the night time effects, the sparks etc all add nicely
Man of the race - Lewis - what a performance, always in control
Good stuff from Nico earlier, let himself down at the end unless it was a car issue
Very happy for Kimi, he deserved it, Seb starting to look ordinary like last year
Williams organisation starting to revert to normal, Bottas is good enough but not the best
Lewis though shows all the newcomers to F1 why its not just about the car, when you have a great driver you guarantee great results!

I'd actually give man of the race to both Rosberg & Raikkonen, with Alonso coming in 3rd. Bottas was very controlled, relaxed and calm even under plenty of pressure. Rosberg & Hamilton both had brake by wire failures / overheating which is a car problem.

Great race from Bahrain. That is what I want to see. One more lap and then, Lewis would've been roasted. I lost it when Kimi past Rosberg but now, Nico is going to claim Lewis backed him into the Mercedes

Both Mercs had 'brake by wire' probs last two laps.. Lewis did everything he needed to do to win ...driver of the race & w/end for me. Rosberg has got himself outa the 'poor me'mode & looked like he'd been watching vids from Lewis' races last year...& managed to execute the overtakes/moves well...great come back kid Kudos to my man Kimi...just gets stuck in ...no drama or gabbin himself up...love this bloke xxx

Well driven race by Lewis. He did everything expected of him, though I was a little plucked by the dodgy pitstop that threw him into the dice with Seb and Nico. They, the team, blew a 5.5sec advantage. But again, Lewis simply ran some consistently fast laps and open the gap again, leaving the others to squabble and judge strategies. I'm stoked for Kimi. Good to see him execute a very good drive. That should add to his confidence. Overall, another brilliant Bahrain GP. There was action up and down the field. I'm satisfied...very satisfied.

This weekend, Mercedes team chairman Niki Lauda told Bild am Sonntag newspaper, 'The six tenths gap between Rosberg and Hamilton is worrisome.' I can't imagine this won't bounce around inside Nico's head...amongst all the other head and craft obstacles he's fighting with. Is this Niki's first salvo to ultimately declaring Lewis team lead for the remainder of the season? Even if it's not, Nico is now faced with an unfavourable public view from within the team. He had a bit of a fightback today but he could only manage a fightback against other team drivers. He had no response to Lewis...again.
