Bahrain: Clean-shaven Alonso Wins
{ Posted on Mar 13 2006 by dScribe }
Fernando Alonso has won a close battle between himself and Michael Schumacher to win the first Grand Prix of 2006 in Bahrain. Even more impressive was he did it without the help of his friend – the flavour savour!
Ok, so a lot of the international audience might not get that joke, but at least you will have enjoyed a great race.
My main observations:
- Nico Rosberg. Wow. And I don’t mean his haircut. Nuff said.
- Ferrari. Welcome back. But don’t you dare start to dominate and make it another boring season for us.
- Felipe Massa. Does he have what it takes? If ever there was a puzzle with a few pieces missing he is it.
- Toyota. I wouldn’t want to be a Toyota employee on Monday (expect a lot of shouting).
- The Champagne Bottle. It was a good move to not throw it down to your teammates off the podium Fernando. I know it’s not actually champers in the bottle in Bahrain, but come on.. [side note: has anyone ever seen the champagne bottle drop like that and then smash on the ground? ]
