Although there's a quote in that report saying that it would be impractical/difficult for the race to be held elsewhere, there was mention in a news report yesterday of Abu Dhabi stepping in should the Bahrain GP be cancelled.

From my experience last season BB, if your in the top 4 after about 8-10 races, you have a good chance of winning it. Patterns emerge and you'll find yourself make predictions based upon past performance and they're usually correct. Everyone does this and it becomes difficult to move up much in the rankings. Last season was predictable with few surprises. Perhaps this year will be different (like bloody IKTS :roll: ) and things will be more wide open. McLaren are already making excuses their cars can't currently compete with Red Bull and Mercedes. Not good news for Button and Hamilton, but perhaps all smoke and mirrors? :idea: , I don't know. Anyway, it's fun and the only pool we have with a female participant (VS) which makes it fun. She almost won last year so this may be her year. Pete :cheers:

EDIT: Correction, above should read Ferrari, not Mercedes.

I agree IKTS is impossible with some results this year. Cricket is as bad. Some wierd results.
Woke up this morning breathing that's a good start to the day.
