Bahrain: FOTA seeks solutions

According to Autosport. com, FOTA, which met yesterday in Barcelona, ​​would study various solutions depending on the evolution of the situation in Bahrain.

If the tests scheduled for March 3 to 6 were to be canceled, the teams would see themselves moving these three days of driving to another circuit. If Barcelona and Jerez seem to be the most logical solutions, Abu Dhabi, Silverstone and Paul-Ricard would be other possibilities.

As for the Grand Prix, if it cannot take place, it is unlikely that it will be replaced. Here too, the majority of teams would like additional tests, so as not to fall behind in their development. This then poses the problem of small teams for whom a fifth pre-season testing session would not be without financial consequences.
