2009.05 – Bahrain Grand Prix
by Terry Saunders on 29/04/2009The first dry race of the season brings the best chance so far to see the raw pace of the teams without silly (exciting) things like rain, safety cars and steward rulings.
Nick Heidfeld gets the most consecutive finishes ever finishing last. Superb. And in the same vein, Mark Webber stays lucky.
But the Toyota’s seemed depressed by race end – not being able to capitalise on their 1-2 in qualifying and despite being too hot for his fair skin, Jenson Button won his 3rd race of the season.
Kevin watched the race in bed, and Terry didn’t watch it until later thanks to ‘family commitments’.
