Sebastian Vettel victorious but Formula One wins few friends in Bahrain

Formula One's corporate brouhaha was briefly interrupted by an outbreak of motor racing as the Bahrain Grand Prix got the race it didn't deserve: that is, a very good one, as Sebastian Vettel took his first win of the season and went top of the drivers' championship. For McLaren it was an afternoon of Wacky Races-style mishap in the pit lane, where a wheel man's fumbling cost Lewis Hamilton vital seconds. "I don't even know who the wheel man is, but I will go and see the guys," Hamilton said, trying and failing to sound chilled out about it all. Better news for Lotus, who achieved two podium finishes for the first time since 1979.
