Does anyone know whether the bbc will have full live coverage of the race or not.

Thanks in advance.

No, Bahrain is not being shown live on the BBC. Highlights will be sometime in the late afternoon. The next live event is Spain on the 13th May

[Scooter185]

so how many teams will show up with a DDRS this race after the clarification in China?

[acosmichippo]

Not sure how many if you saw this, but...



Man, Bernie is such an asshole. I knew he was a bitter old man, but the way he treated this Sky reporter is simply inexcusable. what a douche.

[Hammer278]

I think he got cheesed off because that question implied that he might be considering staying away from Bahrain while endangering all other lives of his event participants. He took offence to that and retaliated. Not too professional, but he's been bombarded about Bahrain for the past month or so, there had to be a tipping point.

[acosmichippo]

well yeah, obviously that was the implication. If he can't handle it, give me the job. I'll deal with the press in exchange for being jetted around the world to watch F1.

Good old MrE!

She asked a stupid question and deserved a stupid answer. Maybe if she'd improve her question quality she'd get on better or maybe if she'd stop trying to giggle after every questionshe may get taken seriously.

Fair question really.

[Ayrton Senna is God]

Fair question really.

The answer was obvious though.

^ LMFAO!!

I'm not a fan of bernie's but frankly that was kind of a pompous question that deserved a similar response.

[vlad]

I think that the question is not stupid at all.

[Hammer278]

I think that the question is not stupid at all.

Why? It was a question which either sounded stupid or heavily implying something which makes Bernie look bad. I'm not surprised by his reaction there, and by her reaction...it seemed like she was taking a shot at him. There was no surprise on her face after his response.

[vlad]

If he wants to risk other people asses, then he should risk his own. And I know that he probably won't be there (due to something that just came up).

Exactly its a fair question, if its safe for the teams to go then its safe for him right? Thats the questions implication.

[geetface9]

He's almost always on the grid just before the race talking with the drivers during the 30 min countdown, from what I've seen in the last two years. I think he might make it quite a point to be very present due to such speculation. Either way, he shouldn't be scared because he's old as hell now, lived his life, so it he can take a chance lol
