First among friends
Whatever anyone says about the increasingly bizarre nature of the 2012 F1 season, not many would begrudge Williams their first win since 2004. You can talk all you want about tyres and windows and falling off cliffs and the result being a lottery but, when the red lights go out, it is what it is.

Maurice Hamilton - Bahrain: Vettel the only winner
As the F1 teams legged it to Bahrain airport on Sunday night, they left behind the unpleasant mix of exhaust fumes, tear gas and the reek of self-interest.
