Bahrain canceled a rescheduled Formula One race after teams complained, citing travel disruption and problems getting insurance.
The teams said the Oct. 30 event would cause an “unacceptable degree of disruption and cost,” according to a June 7 letter they sent to series ruling body Federation Internationale de l’Automobile. Bahrain also suspended the race in March because of civil unrest in the Gulf state.
