Balloons in Bahrain

The Bahrain International Circuit wants to get more spectators in this year and so is planning a number of different promotional ideas in the hope of attracting more people to the Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix on April 3 at the Sakhir track. There will be an F1 driver autograph and photograph session, laser show and fireworks while the more adventurous will be able to get a better view of the facility aboard a tethered hot air balloon which will provide a bird's eye view of the desert facility.
