Alonso is there.

                                           Fernando Alonso has shown during free practice.

Fernando Alonso set the fastest time of the 3rd session of free practice for the Bahrain GP. Michael Schumacher is placed.

Alonso pointed:
They had not yet seen too much of the weekend leaving Sutil and Rosberg shine. But Fernando Alonso reminded everyone, just before the qualifying session, he was there. The New Ferrari has signed a very good 1'54'099, clearly the best time of the weekend, two tenths ahead of Rosberg, again very fast, Webber (+0' '401) and Schumacher (+0' '434). We especially note that only 7 drivers are in the same second, Kubica, 8th, being relegated to 1''232!
Behind, as expected, it runs much slower. If not rolled Chandhok, Timo Glock (Virgin) has had his right hand a little fear, losing his left front wheel in the middle track. The team explained that the gun used to tighten the nut had not worked well, so that the wheel was not tight enough! He will settle all this for the qualifying session scheduled at 12:00.
