Bahrain. 3rd race, 3rd winner, bodes well for another exciting season

So. Bahrain done and dusted. Massa had perfect Sunday, from 2nd to win it.

As i thought, the BMW was lower on fuel, so Kubica's pole did not translate into a win. But their race pace was clearly faster than McLaren, so the win is probably not far.

But consider last year and now? After 3 races last year, we had 3 different winners - 2 for ferrari, 1 for mclaren, with the 2nd mclaren driver showing clear promise. Exactly the same now!

So this promises another epic season.

Except that now - the constructors championship is led by 3rd maker - BMW! So we are heading for 3-way team contest with 6 legitimate title contenders!

And how close and mixed they stand. Kimi first with 19 points. Heidfeld second, then the 3 tied hamilton, heikki and kubica, with massa 6th. This should become great season!
