NPRA has introduced a visa specifically for spectators wishing to attend the F1 Grand Prix event at Bahrain International Circuit.

I have never heard about F1 e-Visa before, have you ?

No - but electronic visas are nothing new. Australia (for one example) has offered them for visitors from certain countries for several years. I don't know what the normal visa arrangements are for visitors to Bahrain but this appears to be a cheaper and quicker method - presumably aimed at encouraging more foreign spectators.

And it entitles you to a free beating by the secret police. What's not to like?

So to got to Bahrain GP you need a e-Visa + tickets to get into the Grand Prix
and Visa + Passport + appropriate travel documents to enter Bahrain ?
