The Mercedes duo dominated the proceedings at Bahrain GP as it is witnessed so far the Mercedes powered cars have a clear advantage over the other manufacturers. We cannot deny credit to the drivers though and they made the race interesting between themselves.
The race was further made interesting with a first corner collision between Pastor Maldonado of Lotus and Esteban Guitierrez. The collision sent his car in the air and almost landed upside down. Lotus driver was handed a race stop-go penalty followed by a grid penalty for the next race of five places.
