Bahrain Grand Prix - Race Round-Up
Panasonic Toyota Racing is celebrating its third podium of 2009 after
Jarno Trulli took third place at today's Bahrain Grand Prix. On
another sweltering day, Jarno started on pole with Timo alongside him
on P2, both on the super soft tyre. Both cars made good starts but
Timo edged in front into the first corner. The pair were closely
matched early on, building up a cushion over the third placed car as
Jarno set the race's fastest lap. Timo pitted on lap 11 and Jarno
took advantage of his extra lap of fuel, jumping ahead at his first
stop. Both drivers swapped to the medium compound tyre and Jarno ran
second after the first round of stops. But Timo struggled for grip on
his heavy fuel load and he brought his second stop forward to lap 33,
fuelling to the end on the super soft tyre. Jarno also took the super
soft tyres when he pitted on lap 37, battling hard en route to the
podium. Timo added another two valuable points with 7th. Toyota was
already celebrating in Bahrain as third driver Kamui Kobayashi
wrapped up the GP2 Asia championship on Saturday.
