Exactly 60 years after the oficial debut, Ferrari celebrates with a great victory from Felipe Massa. After a pole position taken on Saturday, he managed to be the leader for the entire race, not allowing Alonso to take him in the first curve.
Unfortunately, Raikkonen was forced to abandon, due to tehnical reasons:(
The most interesting part was that in the end, Louis Hamilton (coming 2nd) was more friendly to his opponent, Massa, then with him team colegue, Alonso:)
Maybe in the future the team at Ferrari will be Massa - Hamilton:)
GO GO GO Ferrari!!!!

It was a great race and i have to admit Massa is surprising me with his level of driving. He was never in danger of letting slip the race win and has been outshining his team mate over the last two races. Hamilton is doing unbelieveable considering its his first ever season in Formula1, four races and four podiums and he now leads the championship after Alonso could only finish 3rd.
Looking forward to Monaco.

it's to soon to say if hamilton is better. the end of the season will tell.
and about the "friendship" ... oh come on! every team does it because you can't have 2 pilots as the number 1 pilot... and risc they take each other our in the race and the team does not get points and has to pay for the damaged cars... at least Ferrari are honest from the begining about it :P :)

they pay the assuarance... not the car. but the assuarance grows if pilots are involved in many accidents and especially if they are involved in accidents with a team mate :)

They pay for the damaged car?!?!?! I didn't know that... I think you are right...all teams promotes "friendship", ones more than others... anyway the competition between tow pilots from the same team can only bring "happynnes" to the team... up to a point of course...

Yeah, Go Ferrari!!!!!
Unfortunately, I didn't get to see the race, but I have been following the race results, and I did make it to the Bahrain GP. It was awesome!!!
I guess we were all rooting for the main drivers, like Raikonnen for Ferrari, and Alonso for Mclaren, but it seems like it's the supposed second drivers that are shining through. Lewis Hamilton is definitely champ material and Massa has been doing so well too. I am on the "iceman's" side myself but I can't help but admit that both Massa and Hamilton are doing so great!!! Well, as long as it's Ferrari in the lead, I'm happy!!!
It's too bad about Kimi's fate in this race, and well, Alonso, just doesn't seem to have what it takes this year, or so it seems and I'm so glad that Hamilton is not forced to take the back seat like in the first race of the season. Anyway, we have a long way to go this year. Let's see what happens. The competition's real tough and real interesting this GP.
