The first Auto GP race in Morocco was a cracker – brought back memories of how good the racing used to be with those old A1 Grand Prix cars.
Here’s Adrian Quaife-Hobbes and Sergio Campana going at it hammer and tongs for the lead over the final laps. Now here’s a race that didn’t need DRS…

16th April 2012, 19:35 at 7:35 pm #199520damonsmedleyParticipantBrilliant! Absolutely awesome. Amazing defensive driving too. Gave him loads of space and somehow got off the corners well enough not to be passed.

But a good fight!16th April 2012, 19:42 at 7:42 pm #199522AnonymousInactiveIt was certainly great @keithcollantine … but that was the third race of the season!

And I quite like the track, seeing as Morocco has hosted a grand prix, albeit in the distant past, a return there for F1 could be exciting, and even serve as a potential replacement for Bahrain, if the yearly charade of will they/won’t they race there continues.

17th April 2012, 13:02 at 1:02 pm #199526Prisoner MonkeysParticipant@adam-tate – You really like the Marrakech circuit? It’s literally chicanes and a hairpin.
If Bahrain is cancelled, it’s unlikely that there will be a replacement round this year. And there are already several events – New Jersey and (possibly) Argentina – are on standby for next year. If any event is removed from the calendar, they will be the first ones brought in to replace it.
