Bernie Ecclestone told the Telegraph newspaper that at the moment F1 had not qualms about staging the Bahrain Grand Prix in April.
“The teams are not the slightest bit concerned,” he said. “They seem happy that things will go ahead without problems.”
The beginning of the season will be quite busy and Bahrain culminates a four race flyaway schedule that should be grueling, as it runs in two sets of two week trips – Australia/Malaysia followed by China/Bahrain.
