Well, they say the money’s in the Middle East, and that certainly seems to be ringing very harmonic bells in the minds of F1 bosses. With a race in Bahrain in two weeks time, a race in United Arab Emirates beginning next year, and F1 theme parks set up in Dubai, Qatar wants to cash in on all of this.
But, Qatar may be hoping to agree night-race terms with Bernie Ecclescake. The President of the Qatar Motor And Motorcycling Federation, Nasser Khalifa al-Attiyah, said: “We are planning a massive upgrade of the circuit to make it posible to host Formula One races when the time comes.”
The first ever MotoGP night race was held in Qatar recently, and if the circuit goes through with the planned upgrades, we could be seeing night racing at the Losail Circuit soon enough. “They” are speaking the truth, the money is in the middle east, and in a few years, we could be seeing four GPs in the area.
