Run-off changed at Bahrain

19 April 2004


Sandy run-off areas at the new Bahrain F1 circuit are to be re-surfaced. According to a report on the BMW-Williams website, the governing FIA and F1 team principals requested that the work be done to improve the track verges by 2005.

The run-off this year was a troublesome mix of sand, water and cement. 'People thought they would see lots of sand on the track,' said advisor Philippe Gurdjian, 'but it didn't happen.  Bahrain really showed what it was capable of.'
