    Bahrain Grand Prix organizers still hope to reschedule the Formula One race this year, despite the ongoing crackdown on anti-government protesters on the island nation.

    The Bahrain GP was scheduled to be the F1 season-opener on March 13, but was canceled in February by Bahrain's Crown Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa after protests paralyzed the country.
