Please decide if it's the need of rescheduling the event at Crystal Palace due to real F1 Bahrain GP. I think not, because GP starts at 17:00 CEST (15:00 GMT).

For me Bahrain is safe so no need to move the event.

I'm surprised that the topic showed up; didn't knew that Fwas so closely followed these days, and that; if I understood correctly, some fans don't want to miss watching it live, even probably having a TV Box with wich they can see it later.
I'm not criticising anyone; I was a F1 fan many years ago, in the days of Senna, Prost, Mansell, Schumacher, Piquet, etc. I lost interest after Senna's death, and these days it's harder to follow the seasons because it's all on payperview channels. For what I hear, it stoped beeing pilots championship a long time ago, since the mechanics an aerodynamics evolved to a point where the pilot doesn't count anymore. Hence my surprise to find that there are still fans following it with the same interest and priority that I once saw 20 or more years ago, when the pilots still made a difference.
Anyway, I'm not in favor of moving the trophy unless in case of a majority of pilots voting accordingly.

We do sometimes like this, but mainly due to special real F1 or the other important TV events. Planning the season schedule I don't know exactly what can disturb our calendar. In addition, our events are mainly moved due to my personal circumstances, when I simply can't set the race online sometimes and I honestly don't know which Sunday I would be in other place than home.
This time it isn't necessary.

My graphic card said goodbye last night during testing. I have old computer, right on the edge of playing rFactor, GTR2 or Race on, not for new games. Unless I will get similar graphic card, I cannot continue in the historic GT. It really sucks, I repaired my MOMO Racing wheel by logitech to do this one week races with historic cars, you know old PC, old wheel, (not so) old driver, old cars - perfect suit. And now I have to call it off, right after third place at Paul Ricard.
Let´s see if I will miss these sundays drives. Maybe I will buy graphic from second hand soon. Who knows. But since April starts my real-motorsport commitments, so I wouldn´t have much time for testing and racing anyway
Have been pleasure to race with you guys, How´s the song, sing by Johnny Cash?
We'll meet again
Don't know where
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day
Cheers.

Sad news Ales, but HGT doesn't require much practice, if you are a good driver as you truly are. I hope you will meet us on virtual tracks.

It´s nearly the same with Indy Car/CART, DTM or whatsoever, seems that I was born in the wrong century but on the other hand, it does not help. I´m watching a huge amount of motorsport (F3, Indy Car, DTM, F2, F1, GP3, NASCAR, not every race but when I have time - its not a big issue with on demand) and it stil entertains me, which is the main thing.
The Bahrain race itself its not a problem, maybe I would watch it later to do this race. More of a problem is that I´m some kind of moderator at a german F1 forum. And after the race normally there is the most work to do. But I´m not alone and once they will not miss me much. And even if I could not attend because of it, it would only affect one driver, which is not important enough to reschedule the race.
So it´s ok for me.

A month after his fatal accident I was born. So its hard to get that nostalgia feelings when one is too young to remind on those times.Antonio Tavares wrote: I lost interest after Senna's death,
