Does anybody actually like the Bahrain race? Must be the country paying WEC lots of $$$$ for this. And what they gain for it who knows.

bahrain and other middle-east states like qatar and else are basically dictatorial countries, they pay to host motorsport races and other mainstream events like fifa world cup just to get international prestige and visibility....
but let's say that unfortunately this is their "nature" somehow since these middle east countries never knew democracy... the big joke is FIA that promotes gender equity, safety driving etc... but doesn't mind to get big money from countries that basically have little or not cognition at all of human rights (just to be clear, it's not about only middle east, I would include european states like russia and hungary as well).
Back in topic I would had included abu dhabi as last race instead of double bahrain, considering also this year yas marina track has a new and faster layout.
