Bahrain GP 2011 - BIC

Am I jumping the gun on this too early?

[andrew]

Yes. We don't want to think of this terrible circuit longer than neessary!

[forty-two]

Well, as many have said, I think that the Bahrain 2010 race was a bit of a test session for most, especially as they were starting with full tanks for the 1st time in donkeys years.

I can't wait for the 2011 season to start, 118 days to go!

[raymondu999]

I think the 2011 Bahrain race to be much better than 2010

[forty-two]

+1, I expect you're right there.

Well, it could hardly be worse than the 2010 race now could it?

I heard that the new infield section that was added for 2010 is going to be removed for the 2011 race, can anyone confirm this?

[raymondu999]

Yeap. Now they're saying the infield mickey mouse bit was put in to "celebrate F1's 60th anniversary." What a load of crock. They said they wanted it to promote "overtaking"

Sorry for offtopic, but just a little question:
How much time teams gain in season?
For example, Vettel's pole-position lap in Bahrain'10 was 1:54.101. What laptime do you think he could set in Sakhir now with RB6 that he had in Abu Dhabi?

[raymondu999]

We can never really know... We can only guess.

[Tomba]

Waaay too early. Temporarily closed until at least we know what cars will race there.
