Everything you know about Qatar!

IIRC grid girls were dressed up as air hostesses. No sexy clothes, and no alcohol. In the F1 round they give drivers some kind of fizzy fruit juice.

At first glance not my fav country.

think they should change the idea bout letting the grid girls wear not alot.. much more fun foy my little eyes! does anyone really like this track?? i like it cuz i get a decent time on PS2 lol but others, not top 10!

I get the impression that Qatar WSBK and motoGP, and Bahrain F1 for that matter, are only on the callender because rich oil princes from the middle east who spend their billions setting up motosport failures like the A1 GP want to see the big guns of world championship motor racing in their backyard, and I'll bet they pay big bucks for it. I mean, how would the motorcycle market in Qatar compare to other countries visited by the GP, like America, Spain, Italy, Malaysia, Britain, China or Japan? They probably sell more bikes in any one of those countries than there are people in Qatar, it's only a small country. And I can't see brand new R1's, CBR600RRs and 999's faring too well on those desert highways.
That said, I love every round of the GP, they all make for great racing
