The Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix, the fourth race of the 2013 Formula 1 season, takes place on one of the series' most challenging courses. That would be the 5.412 km Bahrain International Circuit. As is always the case when racing in Bahrain, it will be the heat that will tax both drivers and the cars.

The temperature at race time on Sunday in Sakhir will be near 90 degrees (31 C) and there be winds gusting up to 15 miles per hour. So that means the track temperatures will be well over 100 degrees, causing concern that the drivers can stay both hydrated and focused.

NBC Sports Network offers race coverage starting 6:30 a.m Central on Sunday, April 21.

When they get in this hemisphere it's more reasonable.

I think the Monaco GP is usually somewhere between the Indy 500 and the Coca Cola 600. I have often done the triple header. That gauntlet would be like the Ironman Triathlon of racelogs... :drunken:

Check the DRS light... that is the proper use of DRS. Hamilton can drive, yes. Webber is like... a frontrunner. He's good with the right setup, but can't overtake people.
