Mar.30 (GMM) Teams are making preparations just in case the Bahrain grand prix is called off at the last minute.
That is the claim of Germany's Auto Motor und Sport, reporting that the teams could put their back-up plans into action even as late as the Sunday in China -- mere days before they are expected to be at Sakhir.In London this week, F1 chief executive and team bosses stood side by side with Bahrain circuit officials, insisting the race will go ahead despite defiant speculation to the contrary.But Auto Motor und Sport reveals that the teams will also be ready if the plug is indeed pulled at the last minute -- for example, their freight would go not from Shanghai to Bahrain, but back to Europe via Dubai.And the report also said tickets have been reserved for the teams' travelling staff, in the event they do not have to hop directly to the island Kingdom.Michael Schumacher, however, insists he is not worried about going to Bahrain."I'm pretty relaxed, honestly," said the seven time world champion."From our perspective, we're going to be very well looked after, because they (the race organisers) might foresee whatever and be prepared."I'm pretty sure we're going to be ok," added Schumacher.
