Bahrain says outer loop layout likely to be 'one off'
The chief executive officer of the Bahrain International Circuit says that he doesn't expect Formula 1 to make a habit of using its outer loop layout in future Grand Prix events. Bahrain has been on the F1 calendar since the venue opened in 2004. But the race has always been run on a version of the 5.412km, 15-turn international layout configuration. There's also a longer Endurance Circuit used by the FIA WEC 6 Hours of Bahrain event. And this year there is a new option of an Outer Circuit which is shorter (3.543km) and features just 11 corners.
