No problem in a way, because I can accept it's in the calendar because the organizers pay well. But I have a problem with what Neveu said because it is like a white lie. Good track at least in terms of facilities. Middle East as a market is important, but Bahrain is not the only track there. Definitely no local fan base and no local media interest.
