Final Bahrain Test - My Review

Hi! There less than one week to go until the lights go out in Melbourne to start the 2014 Formula One Season. Here it is, my review on the last Bahrain test. 

Now, I am only going to speak about the front runners because, at least for me, it is now clear where the rest of the teams will be standing.

I'll begin with Red Bull.

I think they'd be lucky to reach a few points next week in Australia. Sure, they were able to solve some reliability problems on the two Bahrain tests but they still have some pace and speed problems going on, Sebastian Vettel himself has expressed that it'd even be hard for the car to reach the final lap.

The only solution to their problem is if they keep developing the car throughout the season, working hard but right now, I say Red Bull's domination will come to an end this year.

Mercedes came out of this test showing less than what they showed in the first Bahrain test as they only topped the time sheets on Day Four but still, it'd be a total mistake to say that they won't be battling for podiums and wins.

Ferrari didn't actually show anything different from what they've been showing since the Jerez testing, I believed they showed what they needed to: that they are standing on high ground. They're certainly ready for this season and will be doing their to get back the drivers and constructors championship this year.

McLaren was wiped out of the stage as they only were in the top four once in Day  3. I don't know how something like this happened to them, they showed pace and a good performance in the first two tests. But I don't think that problem is big enough to affect the Woking-based squad's possibilities of getting podiums and winning races this season, I mean, they have the most reliable engine and they surely can work through the problem to fix it during the season or even before the season starts.

Force India was by far the team that performed the best in both of the Bahrain tests, Nico Hulkenberg topped the timesheets on Day 1 in the first one and Sergio Perez did so in Day One and Day Two.

I think this is finally the season in which the green, black and orange team will get the first win in their 7 year history in F1, and this also would mean that probably Hulk will get his first career win or probably Sergio Perez or probably even both.

Remember when I said this would be the season in which Williams would jump into the front runners teams and would be battling for points again? Well, I would say I was wrong. 

Right now I think Frank William's squad has enough potential to give Finnish Valtteri Bottas his first career win and Brazilian Felipe Massa his first win since the 2008 Brazilian Grand Prix and even to give these two drivers a good approach towards the championship.

That's it for my last review! See you guys after the race in Melbourne!

Well, also, I have to say I fell in love...

Williams doesn't only have a quick and efficient car but a beautiful one too, eh?

The Martini livery looks amazing on this car. I don't think that there's a nicer car this year.
