Besides the Bahrain oval race there's little else to look forward to anymore. Might just skip F1 and watch F2 only this weekend.

Maylander amazing with drifting safety car :

Light rain in the f2 practice, any more in the forecast?

Not much corona in Bahrain it seems, same amount of spectators in the stands as in previous years on a Friday.

Ferrari spinning

Apparantly Lewis doesn't know who Franz Tost is

Max spun

F1 rain on the radar.

Big crash for Albon

Albon again

Career wrecked as well?

Turns out there's a 2nd barrier to hit at this track after the one Lewis found in practice in 2008. Who knew?

Poor angles from FOM though, either dust or off screen obscuring the impact.
Hopefully they look at that before the race.

Haas, Alfa and Latifi out

Apparenly if the race was at the normal time tomorrow (1-2pm) it might well rain

But it's at 5pm or something stupid so dry, boring race predicted
