'Good' news! More violence in Bahrain!

Does that mean we will be visiting Turkey in 2012 afterall? (and that Bahrain will be banned from the calendar forever?!!)

I know its a bit offtopic but here it is the final standings if the championship has run the 10-6-4-3-2-1 system...

Drivers Championship

01 - Vettel 147 pts
02 - Button 83 pts
03 - Alonso 73 pts
04 - Webber 72 pts
05 - Hamilton 68 pts
06 - Massa 17 pts
07 - Schumacher 11 pts
08 - Rosberg 08 pts
09 - Petrov 06 pts
10 - Heidfeld 04 pts
11 - Kobayashi 02 pts
12 - Sutil 02 pts
13 - Di Resta 01 pt

Constructors Championship

01 - Red Bull 219 pts
02 - McLaren 151 pts
03 - Ferrari 90 pts
04 - Mercedes 19 pts
05 - Renault 10 pts
06 - Force India 03 pts
07 - Sauber 02 pts

That show how NOT competitive this season was, only 13 drivers would score a point, and only 7 teams, and the points distribution has a huge gap from Ferrari and Mercedes, and we can see there how bad Massa's season was, how far away from Alonso and the other drivers from the Top 3 teams he was during all the season, the only driver from Ferrari, Red Bull and McLaren who didn't got a podium. Even Renault has scored podiums with Heidfeld and Petrov and Massa didn't.

Interesting that Schumacher would have out-scored Rosberg ...

In the past the cars were not so reliable as the last years. If you look in the past the gap between the top 3 teams and the other teams were much bigger than last years.

It's useless doing any proper comparisons. 10 years ago, McLaren's engines expired every twelve minutes and, except for Ferrari, retiring from several races a year wasn't unusual. In 2011, Vettel/Webber/Alonso retired once, Button twice and Hamilton three times. Out of the top 6 drivers, they retired 5 times between them through non-accident issues - Vettel (Abu Dhabi), Button (Silverstone, Nurby), Hamilton (Brazil), Massa (Spain).

I'm sure I read somewhere, probably Autosport I guess that in 1990, about 50% of finishers in each race scored points. Today that percentage remains the same.

Sportbild:

Newey said their car behaves as predicted, the only team Red Bull now still fears is Mercedes.
Mateschitz about Ferrari: "We already know that Ferrari had a few problems" while he was smiling.
The magazine says they know Hamilton told Kovalainen that McLaren is also disappointedwith their new car.
Horner about Mercedes: "Mercedes must be very sure about what they´re doing if they sacrifice 1/3 of pre season testing"
Marko: "It seems Mercedes have something special at the front of the car"
Newey: "We know that the new Mercedes was ready long ago. I think they want to hide something. It must be a part which is quite fast to copy as they wouldn´t make such an effort to hide it"
Mateschitz: "Mercedes has huge pressure on them, the team must risk something"
Mercedes reserved the Catalunya Circuit on 19th February for a filming day. Insider say the car will look very different to all other cars.
MS: "We wanted to have as much time as possible for the basic stuff and if you get those wrong, you´re unable to change it"

A German unreliable magazine saying that the Mercedes car, which has not yet run or shown himself, and is by coincidence a German car, will shock the world?

I believe them!

The sources for most things are named though, which makes it a bit more credible.
