Maybe they were wrong or maybe they have made an exception for Chadhok and cut him a bit of slack and they are going to let him do qually?

He might get a grid penalty next race. So what, the experience will be vital.

He seems like a great bloke, I hope he gets out!

Qualifying is referred to as "Qualifying practise" which is why Chandhok can take part. (sporting reg 3.3)

Without refueling, I guess they can choose their tyre strategy on-the-fly during the race depending on tyres and traffic on the road.

This is the first time i have been able to watch the cars running on the track.

Sitting with Vettel in his lap, they bounce around a lot in the car...... We don't always watch the racers from within the car (or just behind the driver)... do they always bounce around like that, or is it just this track?

How will they last for 58 laps with all that whiplash?

Re: Bahrain Quali Thread
Posted by: Duffer (IP Logged)
Date: 13 March, 2010 11:39

The whiplash is significantly less than last year as lap times are down.

Really peeved off at Webber. What a shocking effort when it mattered the most. He was 1.1 off Vettel, if he was 1.0 off Vettel he'd be in P4.

Really happy about the car and Vettel's pace. McLaren's wing doesn't seem so important anymore. Heidfeld was right about the Redbull. (Sm152)

Spin? He only lost 1 second. I suspect he ran right off track and rejoined with dirty tyres...

Have a look at Vettels fastest time! Half a second quicker than Webber. Vettel has obviously got a better setup.

Mark's best time was a 54.3 and he even made a mistake on that lap. His qually time was very very shabby indeed.

He must of made a mistake in the second sector. Seb's second sector was a 60.7 and marks was a 61.7. I dont think he was baulked.

You wouldnt want to see too much more of that@#$%&or the "too old" tag starts to ged bandied about.
I think it will be a different story tomorrow. Its going to take a cool head to manage your race and be kind to the tyres. I think Mark might just have the upper hand there.

Alonso is a worry.....

I agree, Alonso starts on the clean side of the track right behind Vettel, Alonso is one driver you don't won't starting directly behind you, also Alonso's car will have pretty good long run pace.

So yep Alonso is a big threat to Vettel tomorrow.

I think Marks safe from the "age thing" for a little while, at least with Michael, Rubens and Pedro pushing their zimmer frames about the paddock.

But what about Vettel it is also only his first race of the season and he is on pole?

Ferrari are looking really good then for WCC. It's obviously a long race and a long season. I think Mark will be hard pressed to make the podium now.

The race could be a bit odd, lets see how it plays out. The cars obviously a second faster that what Mark did there, and if he starts 10-15kg lighter than those around him he could be in the Ferrari/Vettel mix pretty quickly.

Ofcourse, our tyres could go off after 3 laps, or our car might be bad on heavy fuel. This isn't 2009, qually is no longer the first lap of the race.

I find the ridiculous thing is the absurd time difference between 1st and last, would hate to be stuck behind one of these HRT's through the slower corners, you could literally lose 3 - 4 seconds in a couple of corners.

Surprise by Vettel's pole. Man.. poor Mark Webber, he aint got an excuse this year if he gets his ass handed to him by Vettel.

“I did my worst lap at the most important time today. It was going well until Turn 16, but it wasn’t so good from there on. Seb did a good job for pole position; there was more in the car than sixth today. It’s disappointing, but all is not lost and it’s a long race tomorrow.”

I think Mark is a top bloke, admitting that while he messed up Vettel did a stunning job. It's encouraging to see I think that Mark recognizes the RB6 is better than his 6th place finish.

As Mark rightfully points out it's a long race and anything can happen. Fingers crossed there are no sand storms.

We may just have a Renault 2005 year (seb=alonso / mark = fisi)! Seb looks hungry young and fast!!!

Mark may get 2-3 wins this year but i can see Seb with a lot more.. the kid is a real talent. I really hope mark can keep pace but i'm a bit worried...

I hope Mark didn't flatspot or stuff his tyres during his "worst" flying lap. That would make things difficult during the race.

gees all the doomsdayers come out early don't they

Seb did a great lap, Mark didn't.

How many points do you get for pole position?

Be happy that RB have a fast car and that Seb did a great job, none of us really at this stage have an idea which car uses their tyres/fuel more at the moment.

The RB might chew its tyres up during the race, then again it might not.

Early days, lets see how the race goes.

Glad to someone on here has a brain.

FOR @#$%& SAKE GUYS, its the first race of the season and Mark made a mistake in qualifying. I seem to rcall Seb MADE MISTAKES IN QUALIFYING LAST YEAR AS DID EVERY OTHER DRIVER.

Get over it you lot, the season is long not just tonight, we are in 1st and 6th. Its a long race, who can manage tyres is more important than 1st or 10.

Yep no problem for Webber this season , just a small mistake in the first qually of the year that's all no big deal at all.

Through out the season Webber will out qualify Vettel on occasions and when he doesn't he will only be one single spot behind him on the grid.

No problem.

Get back in your box doomsdayers!(Sm13)

CHRISTIAN HORNER: “A brilliant job today. It’s great to be starting the new season in pole position. Sebastian drove faultlessly through all three sessions and delivered three laps that were good enough for pole; it’s testimony to all the hard work that’s gone in over the winter. The guys have worked wonders within Red Bull Racing and first on the grid is a great place to be starting the new race format tomorrow. Mark was looking good in the first and second qualifying sessions, but unfortunately he dropped a bit of time in the mid-sector of his last lap, which was the difference between the front row and sixth. I’m sure he’ll be strong tomorrow.”

Quote:
(Renault) FABRICE LOM: “It’s such a great result for the beginning of the season. We were in a bit of a fog over the winter as we didn’t know where we were regarding performance. This is such a good answer to all the questions. We are quick and this is good. It’s a shame for Mark he was very quick until the last lap in qualifying, but first and sixth is a good start. I think we’re set for a good season.”

LOM & HORNER do not seem concerned over Webber, no dramas at all.

WELL DONE RED BULL!

Superawesome lap by sebastion (and how was felipe smashing alonso!).

Looks like all of the old hands in F1 got smashed by thier younger counterparts today! Must be a youth track smiling smiley

Wishing mark as much luck as possible tomorrow, and a clean start. He won't be happy with 6th, but at least encouraged by our speed.

Seb will have to keep the Ferraris behind him in order to exploit the weight advantage that the Renault engined cars are supposed to have. That should be doable given that getting away with 10-15 kg less fuel onboard should help yo ubeat the competition to the first corner. Webbo may be able to get up to pick up a spot on the start and might even be able to get by Hamilton before the first tire stop, or stay out longer than the Macca.

Seb should be able to pull away. A mistake by eithrt Ferrari and Mark could find his way to the podium.

BUT, the tire situation is such an unknown, the race could be full of surprises.

Staying out longer than the Macca would be bad I'm guessing.
