Oscar Piastri is the first repeat pole sitter of 2025 - Qualifying Reactions from the 2025 Bahrain GP

Kunal Shah goes solo as he reacts to the Qualifying session for the 2025 Bahrain Grand Prix.

• Can Lando Norris get on to the podium?
• Can Oscar Piastri take the lead in the Drivers' Championship for the first time in his Formula 1 career?
• How did Carlos Sainz out-qualify Lewis Hamilton?
• Key Qualifying and Race stats for the 2025 Bahrain Grand Prix

Will the 2025 Bahrain Grand Prix be another race won by the pole sitter? Kunal explains why this race might not be another "Qualifying Race" to win; after all, the first 4 races (incl. Sprint in China) have been won by the pole sitter - and via a one-stop strategy.

And of course, will there be a bigger story than McLaren's dominance in the race tomorrow?
