Brawn GP - Sakhir, Bahrain Qualifying & WeightsHi BGP fans apologies for my lack of posting yesterday one of our vans snapped its cambelt 150 miles away so I had to go and rescue it. Another great job done by the team however it does seem that the field is starting to equalise and for the 1st time this season a KERS car is in a place to make a threat. Qualifying and Weight positions are as follows1 Jarno Trulli 648.5 - 12 Laps2 Timo Glock 643 - 10 Laps3 Sebastian Vettel 659 - 15 Laps4 Jenson Button 652.5 - 13 Laps5 Lewis Hamilton 652.5 - 13 Laps - KERS6 Rubens Barrichello 649 - 12 Laps7 Fernando Alonso 650.5 - 12 Laps KERS8 Felipe Massa 664.5 - 17 Laps KERS9 Nico Rosberg 670.5 - 19 Laps10 Kimi Raikkonen 671.5 - 20 Laps KERS11 Heikki Kovalainen 678.5 - 22 Laps KERS12 Kazuki Nakajima 680.9 - 23 Laps13 Robert Kubica 698.6 - 29 Laps KERS14 Nick Heidfeld 696.3 - 28 Laps KERS15 Nelson Piquet Jnr 677.6 - 22 Laps16 Sebastien Buemi 678.5 - 22 Laps17 Giancarlo Fisichella 652 - 13 Laps18 Mark Webber 656 - 14 Laps19 Adrian Sutil 679 - 22 Laps20 Sebastien Bourdais 667.5 - 18 LapsThe obvious immediate threats are Hamilton and Alonso but looking further down the field you would be wrong to write off Kubica and Heidfeld both of which are going 10 laps further, have KERS and can manage their tyres quite well. A great race in prospect.

Rubens Barrichello Brawn GP - Sakhir, Bahrain - Free Practice 1Well the F1 circus has arrived in Sakhir and at least we can say that we won't have a rainstorm, however we may get a sandstorm. It seems some teams have come to Sakhir with some interim updates before the teams converge back in Europe. Free Practice 1 was business as usual with times all over the show and not really giving an indication of any real true pace.Times are as follows:Hamilton 1:33.647Heidfeld 1:33.907Kubica 1:33.938Rosberg 1:34.227Button 1:34.434Kovalainen 1:34.502Barrichello 1:34.531Massa 1:34.589Webber 1:34.827Raikkonen 1:34.827Nakajima 1:34.880Vettel 1:34.938Piquet 1:34.974Sutil 1:35.021Trulli 1:35.036Fisichella 1:35.042Glock 1:35.333Alonso 1:35.348Bourdais 1:35.353Buemi 1:35.369It just goes to show how close the teams are lining up at the minute with only 1.722 seperating the top driver to the last. It would appear from the footage that turns 9 and 10 are where most drivers are having trouble dialling in and I would suggest that cross winds here at Sakhir are playing havoc with setting up the cars.BGP have fielded some livery on the car for Virgin which in all honesty should have stayed as it was. This new livery has no definition and you can't make it out when they are out on circuit. I'll try to grab some pics of it.
