Bahrain has been renevated for the 2010 season opener, but will it be any good? As the picture at the bottom shows, it now incorporates the outer loop that is used for junior formula racing to shorten the circuit. This will make the lap times more like 1:44, 1:45.
Is that a good thing? I think not…Bahrain has an unfortunate track record of precessions, and won’t a longer track add to the agony? Even a brillian 2008 season couldn’t make the race one to remember.
I’m afraid that the race will slowly sink into nothingness, but for the moment, we have to put up with it. At least it won’t be as bad as Abu Dhabi!

Turn 4 has been butchered. I’m not impressed.
