My, my, my. I’m still rooting for the young Brit this season, but he better shapes up. His rivals are probably cheering “Karma!” after Hamilton won the F1 season opener in Australia amidst all the car crashes. Now, it’s his turn to crash in Bahrain. At least, for McLaren fans, it’s just in a practice session.
BBC reports: “[Hamilton] appeared to lose traction coming out of a series of swift turns, which led to him locking up and sliding across a run-off area and into the barrier with considerable force.” Another Johnny Walker picture moment as, after a few moments, Hamilton emerged from his wrecked vehicle, unharmed.
Ferrari’s Felipe Massa and Kimi Raikkonen dominated the tracks with Massa posting the quickest lap and Massa posting second.
