Mercedes warn Bahrain Track Circuit officials of not repeating mistake
Mercedes warn Bahrain Track Circuit officials of not repeating the same mistake done by the officials in Turkey, affecting the whole paddock.
The race is Turkey tested the drivers to their fullest, but the resurfacing of the track a few days before the final event did make things unnecessarily tough, with the track losing grip and propelling drivers to slip.
Similarly, Formula 1 is returning to Bahrain circuit and to avoid the same mistake as before, Mercedes has warned the officials at Bahrain to not repeat the mistake.
Though the warning was in light humour as it was the social media handle which blew out the words to make some amidst the week of inaction, while there is still the anticipation of the first race in Bahrain.
Hey @BAH_Int_Circuit. Don’t you even think about resurfacing the track. 😂

Meanwhile, Renault and Ferrari are also expected to give a fight. Therefore, a tough midfield battle will surely be exciting to witness.
