Description
Felipe Massa won the 2008 Bahrain Grand Prix for Ferrari, leading a 1–2 finish alongside his teammate Kimi Räikkönen. Staged at the Bahrain International Circuit on 6 April 2008, it marked the third round of the 2008 Formula One World Championship.

The weekend was notable for Robert Kubica securing his maiden pole position—the first and only pole position of his F1 career—driving for BMW Sauber. However, Massa quickly seized the lead into the first corner. Behind them, Lewis Hamilton suffered a poor launch that triggered his anti-stall system. Hamilton's race worsened a lap later when he collided with the back of his former teammate Fernando Alonso, breaking his front wing and removing him from point-scoring contention.The Ferraris dominated the front of the field for the remainder of the 57-lap event, while the strong performance of BMW Sauber vaulted them into the lead of the Constructors' Championship at the conclusion of the weekend.
