Dodging much slower cars on straights is easier than in corners, generally. The stupid sprint race success penalties have made the P1s slow on straights that's true but there should be only 3 P1s at that race anyway
The 2010 endurance layout was even more boring than the standard Bahrain circuit, if even possible. At least the outer rim is something different and not a generic Tilkeboredom. I'm looking forward to that GP, which is something I don't think I've ever said of any event held at Bahrain. I mean it's still Bahrain with gigantic carparks and boring scenery, it's certainly no Mugello we saw the last weekend, but the layout is fresh and speedy. Pure high speed tracks are bit of dying breed

R18 dumas crash aside, I remember a lot of other FCY during that race.
Honestly I think for lmp1/2 drivers that race has been a real pain since they had to dodge tons of gtc/lmpc moving chicanes each lap.
Cars usually driven by unexpert and unpredictable am drivers.
At best a WEC oval bahrain race I expect something like a long highway ride with slower gte cars running on a side of the roadway and faster lmp cars running on the other side.
Btw me too don't like sakhir endurance layout; it's just wierd that an "endurance" layout has never been used so far for an endurance event.
