First points for Massa. 12 extremely needed points for Massa that won the Formula One Grand Prix in Bahrain after failing to finish top6 in Australia and Malaysia. Bahrain's F1 Grand Prix is his favorite, "I love this circuit. I've always been very, very strong here. We knew we could count on a great car and that certainly proved to be the case," Massa said.
BMW had both their pilots in the first 6 with Kubica (+4.9s) finishing third and Nick Heidfeld (+8.4s) fourth.
Last but not least, Kovalainen of McLaren finishd 5th and Jarno Trulli from Toyota crossed the checkered flag sixth.
It was a good race with only a few incidents, like the one where Lewis Hamilton accidentally kicked Fernando Alonso in the back and was forced to head to the pits for repairs.
