Poor race for McLaren = good race for BMW.
I can’t believe how close the top three teams are in the constructors’ championship after three races.

Is it possible that BMW-Sauber is the new number 2 team? I don’t know yet, but it’s looking good for them.
What happened to McLaren. No pace at all and Lewis blew it big time.
Massa’s back. Very fast the whole weekend and blew away Kubica on the start.

looked at the video from the hamilton - alonso incident, cant understand what happens.. the mclaren just goes straight into the renault.. some talk about alonso breaking.. but does not seem so.
impressive start by massa, and kovalainen did really well. toyota also seems to have found some pace!

Ferrari’s looked like they were the best by far, same as last race. Sauber and McLaren seem equal. The Toyota’s pace has been surprising.
Williams has appeared to slip since Australia and has Red Bull to some extent.
Renault is definately the disappointment for the year. They simply do not have the pace to keep up and are relagated to fighting for the last points each week.
I look forward to see if anyone can keep up with Ferrari next race, or if they are truelly the dominate team they appear.

Ferrari are so good it’s scary… their one weakness is that both drivers are capable of having off days, Massa through bad driving, Kimi through bad attitude - sometimes he just doesn’t seem to fully turn up for the job.
I wonder how long before Trulli outpaces a McLaren?

Looks like this time McLarens weren’t even equal to BMWs … OK, Heikki managed the fastest lap, but at that time neither of the top 4 had any reason to push the car to the limit …
But … Ferrari had big day off in Melbourne, McLarens in Bahrain … looks like things can be changing from track to track….
Ferrari dominance was scare though, and Kimi still complained about not much going right for him for the whole weekend
Three weeks and some testing before next race though … Thinks can turn around, Renault for sure hope so …
