Well this should be an interesting one! This is the first formula one race at the brand spanking new Bahrain racing complex!
Being in the middle of the desert, the main issues are the heat (which at the moment isnt soo bad) and the sand.
The sand could have huge effects, as it could drastically reduce the grip while increasing the wear on the tyres! It may also play havock if injested into engines or bearings etc etc.
The teams are also yet to test here, so, unlike the other tracks, the teams will be starting from scratch (ok - truth is they can pretty much replicate the track without setting foot at the circuit....but not exactly...so it should still be very interesting).

Enjoy guys....hope BAR can get both cars to finish in the points....hopefully another podium! We should have a huge advantage having Anthony Davidson in the third car in practice (being the top team allowed this privelege).
