If I'm not wrong, it was the first race in 2009 where a Ferrari led a race lap.

Great race for Kimi no dubt!
Re: 2009 FORMULA 1™ Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix
I'm very proud of Kimi. BTW I already said that Ferrari would score at least 1 point in this race. I'm glad I was right. But weird things going on with Massa's car though.
BMW illustrates what can happen when you don't upgrade your car every race. There is so much progress in F1, it's really incredible.

according to MTV3 Räikkönen's second pit stop lasted for couple of second too long because of a attachment-problem on the tire
Re: 2009 FORMULA 1™ Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix
"Massa made contact with team-mate Kimi Raikkonen at the first corner, damaging his front wing and having to pit to replace it. On top of that, his telemetry wasn't working and his KERS was also malfunctioning."

Did everyone notice Kovalainen fastest in turn 14 with..... 250 kph ?????? So funny
Re: 2009 FORMULA 1™ Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix
According to Autosport Forums, Ferrari are bringing a range of updates to Barcelona.
looking good!!1. a change in geometry of the front suspension; the upper wishbones will be now placed much lower
2. a new floor
3. a DD diffuser. It will not be similar to the ones of toyota and williams. It's more like a triple deck diffuser in the shape of DD diffuser
4. changes to the rear suspension
5. a new KERS cooling solution
6. change in the seating position of the driver
..........the rumours are that the new updates will give the car an extra 8-tenths per lap. They found 30% more downforce in the wind tunnel and in the simulators.
