Here is an interesting page on Brembo's braking calculations for Bahrain. Quite a lot of detail here. 5G's braking force!

Saw Ralf Schumachers' old car at a tire store a few years ago, was amazed at how small and toy like it looked.
I could get in it, getting out might not be possible.
Having watched numerous live races and having done some track time myself, I can attest to the fact its' a lot faster inside the car.
My wife took a vid of me at the Glen coming up though the esses, foot to the floor and hands full and it LOOKS LIKE I'M LOOKING FOR A PARKING SPACE!
So if a car looks fast from the stands it's gotta be unbelievable from the cockpit.

I agree, that race was fantastic through the whole field. Not a big fan of full course yellow but see it was needed there and the last 10 laps were really exciting because of it! Lewis maybe a little like Seb was last year there. Nico seemed a little pissed on the podium.

Did you guys see the St. Pete Pirelli World Challenge race they had on NBCSN this evening? The racing was awesome
Now I can only hope for the same the weekend of the Chinese Grand Prix.

Nico's body language was a dead giveaway. Gotta be some late race " team orders"
He had the tire advantage in the last laps and should have overtaken LH.
In addition to the racing the team, 'soap operas" are going to be everywhere - Alonso/Kimi, Massa/Bottass, Rosberg/Hamilton and best off all Vettel/Ricardo.
Not sure about the others, but the Scuderia has switched from the Ace with a solid number 2 strategy to pitting two great drivers against each other to get the most out them.
Red Bull obviously has the Ace/#2 now, but if Riccardo keeps improving we'll have controversy before the end of the season.
Very interesting all around.
