Nico Rosberg has set the best time on the first day of the Bahrain Grand Prix. The Mercedes driver, who one his first Grand Prix in China, was the only one in the 1:32's. Red Bull Racind duo Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel ended as second and third. Force India didn't compete at all in this session. The team packed up to go back to their hotel early. An incident this week has fuelled some fear within Force India, but they will participate in qualifying and the race.
