Bahrain: Anything but Boring

Yesterday's Bahrain Grand Prix proved wrong those who dare suggest that Formula 1 is dull. It was a race full of high-speed overtaking and wheel-banging, with plenty of competition on display.

F1 is frequently criticised, sometimes fairly I will admit, as being boring. But each to their own, of course, and what does such sniping matter when the faithful fans get a great race?

The Lotuses were competitive, Mercedes and Force India weren't too far behind, the Ferraris suffered unfortunate mishaps, the McLarens nearly smashed each other off the track like dodgems - and Red Bull took another confident victory...

Thanks to my family I have tickets for British Grand Prix this year, and I'm looking forward to it more than ever. Formula 1 is boring? Pull the other one.
