Bahrain Grand Prix Qualifying Results: Toyota 1-2, Hamilton 5th
The Bahrain GP Qualifying was the first time where the teams were able to show the true pace of their cars thanks to no rain and high temperatures. There were those, me included who thought Brawn would be at the top of the grid again, but the results were mixed once again.

Bahrain Grand Prix Qualifying Results: Toyota 1-2, Hamilton 5th

Jarno Trulli and Timo Glock take up 1 and 2 locking out the front row of the grid. Trulli is certainly a master when it comes to qualifying, but I do not hold out much hope of him winning the grand Prix tomorrow, as he always seems to fade in the race.

Sebastian Vettel maintains his momentum from the previous race by taking the third spot with brawn’s Jenson Button taking fourth. McLaren is now starting to show some form as Lewis Hamilton qualified 5th, the reason for this is two things, the track does not demand a car with loads of downforce, which is great for McLaren, and the long straights are perfect for McLaren’s KERS system.

The shock of the qualifying is that mark Webber was out in the first round as he was blocked by Adrian Sutil while on a hot lap. Webber starts 18th, Sutil will start from the back of the grid after race stewards penalized him.
