Force India on Twitter:](http://twitter.com/clubforce)"Only a couple of runs for Adrian this am - track conditions not ideal and the old F1 cars have dropped oil over the track as well… Same programme for Tonio too, track is also so long that one run seems to takes an eternity! Baseline then some tyre work too."0800: We have a green light and it is the Force India pairing of Adrian Sutil and Vitantonio Liuzzi who are first out onto the track.**0757: ** Our red button coverage of third practice has just started, and it is being streamed at the top of this page. Jake Humphrey and the boys return to BBC ONE at 1010 GMT with coverage of qualifying also on BBC Radio 5 live.0754: Here’s a quick recap of what happened on Friday, Force India’s Adrian Sutil set the fastest time in the first practice session, followed by Fernando Alonso in the Ferrari and Renault’s Robert Kubica. The second session saw Rosberg lead McLaren’s 2008 world champion Lewis Hamilton, with Schumacher third and Hamilton’s team-mate Jenson Button fourth. Remember, not too much can be read into the times as we do not know how much fuel the cars have on board.Ferrari on Twitter:](http://twitter.com/InsideFerrari)"After a long night of work in the garage, everything is ready for P3. It will be a very important session."0746: So then, we have third practice at 0800 GMT and qualifying coming up at 1100 GMT and as Danny Dyer would say, I’m predicting a right naughty little rumble. Can Mercedes and McLaren continue where they left off on Friday, will Ferrari flex their muscles, have Red Bull sorted out their gearbox problem and will Karun Chandhok get his Hispania out of the garage These questions, and more, will be answered in the next five hours or so.Lotus driver Heikki Kovalainen on Twitter:](http://twitter.com/H_Kovalainen)"Everything ready for third practice. Gonna check my weight with my race kit on before the session to make sure we are in quali trim!!"BBC Sport’s Andrew Benson in Bahrain: "Good morning from Sakhir, where at 0800 this morning, it was already heating up nicely - in both senses of the phrase. The temperature is already more than 30C, and this afternoon in qualifying, we will get the first chance to really see how the new cars compare, and the teams will be preparing for that during this morning’s first practice. Should be pretty tasty."0739: Morning all. I knew you would be back. Schumi wasn’t best pleased yesterday after Mercedes team-mate Nico Rosberg outpaced him in both of the sessions by nearly 0.5 seconds. “That is a bit too much for my standards,” he said on Friday afternoon. “I certainly feel a little bit rusty, certainly on the one-lap issue I can do better. On long runs and consistent runs things are pretty good, I’m quite happy. I will just use the rest of the weekend in order to tweak out the little bits.” I wonder how much sleep he got last night.0735: “I’ve got to raise my game a bit and I’m sure I’m able to.” They were not the words of Tiger Woods during another confession, but of seven-time Formula 1 champion Michael Schumacher after Friday’s two practice sessions. Nico you have been warned.
