Daily Tribune25-03-2025
Bahrain International Circuit (BIC), 'The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East', has opened a fan-engagement stand at City Centre Bahrain to bring the excitement closer to the public ahead of the Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix 2025.
The stand, brightly branded with the theme of this year's F1 spectacle 'The Desert Never Sleeps', is located on the ground floor near gate number three in the West Court. It is operational daily between 10am and 2am during the holy month of Ramadan.
All those visiting the BIC stand will be able to purchase their tickets to the highly anticipated F1 weekend, scheduled for 11 to 13 April as the fourth round of the 2025 FIA Formula 1 World Championship.
They can also buy all kinds of official F1 and BIC merchandise including apparel and souvenirs, and get all information on this year's grand prix.
Tickets to the race weekend are selling fast and fans are advised to visit BIC's City Centre Bahrain stand at the earliest to secure their seats. BIC's Main Grandstand is already completely sold out with the Turn 1 and Beyon grandstands now over 95% sold, with low availability for the University and Victory grandstands.
Some hospitality options remain, but with limited availability. The F1 Paddock Club and BIC's Corporate Lounges have already completely sold out, but fans can purchase tickets to the Champions Club and The Dome by F1 Experiences, both of which offer unique experiences to the race weekend.
BIC is also offering a number of travel packages for the F1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix 2025 for fans wishing to attend from abroad.

Antonelli paying price for ‘wrong steps' by Mercedes

Mercedes have made mistakes in developing their Formula One car and teenage Italian rookie Kimi Antonelli's struggles are a consequence of that, according to technical director James Allison. Antonelli, 18, finished third in Canada in June for his first F1 podium but has since failed to score. He has had two retirements since Montreal as well as 17th in a sprint race in Belgium last Saturday and then 16th in Sunday's main grand prix. The Italian, who took a sprint pole in Miami and is the sport's youngest ever race leader, has retired four times in the last seven rounds and admitted in Belgium he was lacking confidence in the car and not driving as he would like. 'I think he's, like the rest of us, massively fed up with a string of results that are well below what we were collectively achieving earlier in the year,' Allison said in an interview. 'I hope he takes some solace from the fact that we tell him, and it's demonstrably a fact, that we have taken the wrong steps with the car, making our team less competitive, and that he is paying the price for that, as is George (Russell). 'If the car isn't where it needs to be, then it will be a struggle getting through the qualifying stages in your rookie season in F1.' Allison said it was 'utterly clear' to everyone that the car needed to be better and Antonelli's fortunes would improve when it was. 'Hopefully he's listening to us as we say those reassuring words because we absolutely know that he is putting in the effort on his side of that bargain,' he added. Mercedes are third overall, 28 points behind second-placed Ferrari, with one win by Russell in Canada. Russell has been on the podium five times and is fourth overall with 157 points to Antonelli's 63. Seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton, whose seat Antonelli took when the Briton moved to Ferrari, showed his support for the Italian after Saturday qualifying at Spa. 'He was telling me to keep my head up, and that it's normal to have bad weekends, and to just keep believing,' the Italian told reporters. Hamilton told Sky Sports television he could not imagine what the rookie was going through. 'He's been doing fantastic. But to be thrown in at the deep end at 18... he hadn't even had his driving licence when he first started racing,' he said.
