The Bahrain GP will take place on October 30
Bahrain would take the place of the Indian GP, which would ultimately take place in December.
Bahrain will host Formula One: the date is set for October 30, such is the first leak, live from the World Council currently being held in Barcelona, reported via Twitter, by Fawaz Al Khalifa, member of the royal family and President of the Public Relations Office of the small Kingdom of the Persian Gulf.
This information, reported by the site Autosprint.it, would therefore go against the teams’ wishes, with Bahrain taking the date allocated to the Indian Grand Prix, while the latter is expected to take place at the end of the season on a yet-to-be-determined date.
The 2011 season should therefore reach its conclusion in December, in India, marking the latest finale since the 1963 South African Grand Prix.
Update: The FIA has since made this announcement official and the Indian GP could take place on December 4 or 11.
