2012 Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix

Winner – Sebastian Vettel. Team – Red Bull Racing-Renault. Laps – 57. Time – 1:35:10.990.
 The 2012 F1 season continues to enthrall us, as we have the fourth different team and driver win in as many races this year. Sebastian Vettel looked like a shadow of himself compared to his dominant performance last season, as he was consistently out-qualified and out-raced by team-mate Mark Webber. But, it looked a 2011 flashback as the World Champion clinched pole, got off to the perfect start, opened a gap, still looked-after his tyres, did …

2012 Formula 1 UBS Chinese Grand Prix

Winner – Nico Rosberg. Team – Mercedes. Laps – 56. Time – 1:36:26.929.
Yes, you read that right! Nico Rosberg, son of the illustrious F1 driver of yesteryear Keke Rosberg, clinched the first race win of his career after a pretty long wait. And it was also the first win for Mercedes as a ‘works’ team since they re-entered the sport in 2010. That much for the statistic-hungry group! And for the average F1 fan like you and me, the Chinese round of the 2012 season was another fantastic race. The starting …

2012 Formula 1 Petronas Malaysia Grand Prix

Winner – Fernando Alonso. Team – Ferrari. Laps – 56. Time – 2:44:51.812.
It was another wet Malaysian Grand Prix, and it was again another absolute thriller. The race was won by Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso from Sauber’s Sergio Perez and McLaren’s Lewis Hamilton. The result has added extra pressure on Felippe Massa, as there were already rumours that Perez – a member of the Ferrari driver development programe – could replace him at Ferrari. Massa again struggled, as he finished a lowly 15th. Alonso was at his best, as he drove …

2012 Formula 1 Qantas Australian Grand Prix

Winner – Jenson Button. Team – McLaren-Mercedes. Laps – 58. Time – 1:34:09.565.
The 2012 season has kicked-off at Melbourne in Australia, and it was a phenomenal opening race which unfurled at the Albert Park circuit. The fickle weather on Friday and Saturday made sure that we were unsure of the pecking-order of the season until the qualifying session, as all the practice sessions were run in changeable wet-dry-wet conditions. Lewis Hamilton seemed to have recovered his mojo, as he delivered a perfect lap to clinch pole. Jenson Button made it a …

2011 Formula 1 Driver’s and Constructor’s Championship Table

Take a look at the 2011 Formula 1 Championship table for the drivers and the constructors. The driver’s champion was again Sebastian Vettel for the second year running. And this time, he clinched it without breaking much sweat. The constructors championship also did not change hands, as Red Bull Racing once again produced a super fast car. This year, it was more reliable, and the young world champion simply refused to make any mistakes and eventually, Mark Webber was made to look bad. The other notable tilt in the battle …
