Just to let you all know, a new blog has been setup, a special blog for racing including F1 stories. I will not talk about them here anymore. Most likely it'll be up by May 06.
It's called Projekt/D and here's the site: http://denverdrift.spaces.msn.com/

Yea! the race will actually start in few hours, so hang on tight. If you're somewhere around my place, come on and stop by, drink some beers and watch the race on my plasma screen.

2006 FORMULA 1™ Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix
2006 FORMULA 1™ Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix
Hello fans! Today is the opening day for F1 GP 2006 season, but this time it's not Australia but Bahrain. What a surprise! Ok, so Alonso-Renault won again, Schumacher-Ferrari 2nd and Kimi-McLaren 3rd. Both Toyota came 14th and 16th, not a very good start for Ralph and Jarno.
Let's see what can they do in Malaysia. Here's some facts about Bahrain Circuit:
Bahrain International Circuit
PO Box 26381
Manama - Kingdom of Bahrain
Tel: (+973) 17450000
Fax: (+973) 17451111

The 2004 Grand Prix of Bahrain marked the first ever round of the FIA Formula One World Championship to be held in the Middle East and the official culmination of a multi-million dollar project started back in September 2002 when the Kingdom of Bahrain signed a long-term deal to host the event.Located at Sakhir, 30 km south-west of the island's capital, Manama, the Herman Tilke designed circuit contains no less than five track layouts within one complex. Construction began in November 2002 and in the months prior to its March 2004 completion, work was going on around the clock. Over 12,000 tonnes of stone were used in the build, a third of it Welsh granite, chosen for the track surface due to its excellent adhesive qualities.The 5.411 km Grand Prix circuit was designed with the spectator in mind, with 50,000 grandstand seats, all providing excellent views. Those spectators (a total of 100,000 over a race weekend) get to see the cars heading into the external desert area, before coming back into the oasis-styled infield. Up to 500 journalists can also witness the action from the venue's purpose-built media centre. The track offers the driver a unique experience in the way the circuit's width varies at the end of the different straights. This allows for diverse racing lines, and the 12-corner design provides at least three genuine overtaking opportunities.
Most fans' arrival point will be the Bahrain International Airport, located in Muharraq on Bahrain Island, the largest of the Kingdom's 36 islands. The airport plays host to around 40 airlines and lies just a few kilometres north-east of the capital, Manama.Given the island's relatively small size (48km long and no more than 16km wide), road is the most obvious way to access the Bahrain International Circuit, either using the Kingdom's efficient bus services or one of the numerous rental car firms. The circuit's official website suggests two alternative routes from the airport, both taking around 30 minutes:Route 1 – From the Khalifa Al Kabeer Highway take the Sh. Hamad Causeway towards Manama South. After the bridge turn left towards the Al Fateh Highway and follow this to the traffic light junction signed Sitra. There, turn left on to the Majils Al Tawon Highway and once past Awali, take the Zallaq Highway towards Zallaq. Turn left at the junction signed Al Jazaer Beach and the circuit will come up on your left.Route 2 - From the Khalifa Al Kabeer Highway take the Sh. Isa Causeway towards Manama Center. After the bridge, go straight on to the King Fasal Highway. Go through Seef District and on to Madinat Hamad where you should get on to the Sh. Shulman Highway. At the first roundabout go left towards Riffa, then at the next roundabout go right towards Awali. Once past Awali, take the Zallaq Highway towards Zallaq. Turn left at the junction signed Al Jazaer Beach and the circuit will come up on your left.Bahrain Island is also linked by road to the Saudi Arabian mainland by the King Fahad Causeway.
