    Bottas takes a brilliant first career pole in Bahrain, ending Hamilton's run.

    4.


    Never mind that though. Charles Leclerc just won his first F2 race. That boy is seriously special. Won the GP3 championship last year. Just went from 14th with 8 laps to go, up to first. All overtakes (no gimmies). Astonishing.

    Bloody hell <yikes>

    One to watch out for then... looking forward to this afternoon.

    First race I will have watched this season and will be a good hangover cure.

    Interested to see how Bottas does as leader today.

    Only one McLaren racing.

    He was a little silly coming into the pits, albeit doing his team mate a favour.

    But surely Lewis wouldn't do anything to help his teammate?

    He only cares about himself doesn't he? :)

    Normally. He did seem genuinely pleased for his pole position though. Perhaps he's growing up.

    Reckon we're gonna have an interesting 2-way battle on our hands this year. Good stuff.

    He wasn't doing Valtteri a favour, he was wanting to be able to slot straight in without having to sit.

    Some predictable inclusions from Gatland as he was always going to include AWJ and Warburton. He was always going to include slightly more Welsh than he should, presumably at the cost of some Scotland lads.
