True.

I will surely watch the race. But with low expectations, just tune in the tv, watch the race, turn off the tv.

Watching a race at Spa or Monza is something else, the moment I wake up I am thinking about the race that is to come in the afternoon.

And besides, you can never be 100% happy with your sport (or anything for that fact) 100% of the time.

Well it's still better than spending your Sunday watching reruns of *your country*'s funniest home videos.

I'd forgotten just how much this track sucks.

There, that's my negative Bahrain post out of the way. I'll try and avoid any more. :p

Having Bahrain as the season opener is a good way to lose all the excitement.

To be fair, not all of us will. I've got far better racing to watch at Donny.

Oh and the track is crap

Hmmm, there's a poll question somewhere here...

Which deserves more hatred from TBK-Light members:

- Sakhir, Bahrain
- Plato, Jason

That on is rather quite tricky. Sakir, mainly because Plato does provide entertainment

Nope. I will be at another racetrack, luckily.

Seriously, people who bitch about this track are the ones who care about the sport and will end up watching the race anyway because they love it.

It's such a shit track that no one who really cares about motorsport won't waste its time even to moan about it. :p

I don't see the extra hate for this track.

It's a Tilke track, but they all are nowadays.
The walls are no further than they are in Texas.
The action is no more boring than in Hungary.
The spectators are no less interested in F1 than the Chinese.

Ok wait now I get the extra hate. This track combines the inconvenients of ALL the others, without any of their advantages.

EXACTLY. It isn't that this track is horrific, it's just bad at pretty much everything. Does it have any redeeming features at all?
