Yet another race and yet another delayed review. Well, I apologize once again but I’m really very busy with my study schedules. Anyways, I thought this is the right time to push this one through before the start of next Grand Prix which by the way, will take place tonight! Fernando Alonso capitalized on his expertise and registered another race victory to his name. His young rookie team mate, Lewis Hamilton finished a close second as the entire racing fraternity witnessed McLaren decimating their opposition ruthlessly.

A different race but the same winner. Felipe Massa secured his third consecutive pole position and back to back win to firmly establish himself as a serious title contender. Felipe hardly put a foot wrong as he crossed the finishing line about 7 seconds clear of second place man, Lewis Hamilton. Ferrari still retains 100% success rate in all 2007 qualifying events.

Fernando Alonso threw away his superb start when he decided to take a shortcut across the gravel traps after a minor collision with Massa at the start of the Grand Prix. Alonso, however recovered from the mishap and was able to rejoin the race at 4th place. An electrical failure for Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen after 7 laps into the race ensured Alonso the final podium place.

It’s almost a month now and I know its too late for a review but I have an excuse. I was really very busy with my college assignments to be able to write any review. I will however, try and give a small account on what happened at the 2007 Bahrain Grand Prix. I’ll try to keep it as limited as possible giving out just the major details and factors which unfolded that weekend.

First of all I apologise for delay in posting this review. As you know, I was away for a while and it took me some time to resume normal activities. I’ll be posting pictures from my trip soon here at this website but for that you’ll have to wait. Coming back to the Malaysian Grand Prix 2007, it had everything in it to be exciting yet it turned out to be somewhat boring. The eventual race winner, Fernando Alonso drove a lonely and clinical race. He was well supported by his McLaren team mate, Lewis Hamilton. Lewis is fast turning into a young superstar and is the one to watch out for in near future.

The 2007 Formula 1 season started off in grand style with Saturday’s Qualifying session. The format for the session was unchanged from last season. The session, divided into three parts saw Kimi taking the first one convincingly before Alonso made the second his own. The final part was dominated by Raikkonen who finished it off with a pole position time of 1:26.072, a full four tenths faster than Alonso who secured the second place in the grid. the next row was filled up by BMW’s Nick Heidfeld and Alonso’s rookie team-mate, Lewis Hamilton. Kimi’s team-mate Massa had a disastrous time as he failed to reach the third part of qualifying when his Ferrari came to a halt due to a gear box problem.
