What a race and drama on MotoGP, Lorenzo crashed so early and duo ducati crashed in the last corner before finish. Their crash is being a nice gift for Rossi and Pedrosa.
Very interesting race ever..

Very demostration of power yesterday for Hamilton in the qualify, in the last lap more of 0,5 second less to Ferrari, but i think today Vettel have the same chance of last race, to overtaking the two mercedes at the start

Unfortunately it seems to me that also WTTC and DTM are not going to be better this year. In last years motoring sports made a huge step backwards - they are just not that intense any more

I would say that there will be no significant differences on Formula1, Mercedes will still dominating the races just like last season.
Personally, I like MotoGP than Formula1..although it will be only like a competition between Lorenzo, Marquez, Rossi but at least I'm enjoying more when watching MotoGP than F1.
But I hope Ducati can destroy Yamaha and Honda domination this season.

yea this was a big surprise i must say i hope that they will be more competent this season and that we can see them in podium finishes

Impressive lap time from J.Button which finished 3rd in the P2 free practice, come on Honda bring those horse power missing out of your engine soon rather than late. Hopefully Mclaren will have some good result during qualifiers too, but with the stupid new format I am not very optimistic. Still I believe tomorrow will be a very good race, this kind of circuit is made for close racing.

yes and not is already sure the possibility to Alonso drive in the next Gp China, the crash in the australian gp are very terrible and have a problem to lung

I was reading that alonso wont driving this race hope that this new kid will do his best

If we see in F1 next year , then I am sure he will be driving for Mclaren, Mclaren has kept an eye on him all the time and if they gave him a seat in this race, based on his performance during this race and how he will be doing in his own championship, chances are pretty high he will be driving for McLaren next year, no doubt about it.

yes he look promising we will see on race on Sunday is he worth investment for MCL Honda
he is young yes and i hope to see him drives for next season in some F1 team

Yes I learned the news, and I know that Stephan VanDorfe will substitute him for this race. I am personally very excited seeing a young promise as he is very talented in a formula 1 race. It would be good to watch, hope they give him the new spec engine and not Button.

Yes FIA doctors forbbiden Alonso to race on Sunday.

yea but latest info is that Alonso wont race this one doctor orders is to miss this race do the last race crach

Honda running a new spec engine in this race don't remember well but I guess it was for Alonso. So lets see how it unfolds, they claim they can add more horsepower during next races but so did last year and nothing happened, so am very curious about this new spec Honda engine.
 
It will be a very beautiful race as this is a track which don't let you create a lot of distance, especially between same team cars so I hope it will be an emotion full race like last year.

After a week break do the Easter holidays races are back for this weekend

FORMULA1 - Bahrain 01 Apr - 03 Apr

Ferrari have lose a good occasion yesterday, because id Vettel replace first the tyre i don't know if can win, but sure can close second (already because have lose 3 second to pit stop for one error)
