Bahrain - The Kick Off and The Driver Man View
Sebastian Vettel puts Redbull on Pole!
New teams, new drivers, new season. The formula one seaon kicks off to a great start with the qualifying sessions highlighting who has the pace, and who's already out of the race. Sebastian Vettel managed to show that he works well under pressure and put the Redbull on pole with a time of 1.54.101, followed by Fillipe Massa, Ferando Alonso, Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg.
Michael Shumacher, 7 time world champion only managed 7th and Jesson Button, last year's world champion only managed a time of 1.55.672 leaving him in 8th.
Tyres, reliability and peer pressure have a big part to play on a very hot track. Although Vettel is on pole I'll be surprised if he remains in that position at the end of the race tomorrow.
My Pole Predictions are (No particular order)
