I just found it peculiar. I know Qatar was on a Friday but a Monday is just odd
It's the Pentecost weekend, and the Monday after Pentecost is a bank holiday here. The WTCR weekend is part of the 'Jumbo Family days', Jumbo being a supermarket lead by car nut Frits van Eerd (who races a LMP2 Dallara himself in the WEC/LeMans with Jan Lammers) which has been a Max Verstappen sponsor since day one. Max Verstappen will do demo runs in his Red Bull that weekend as well, meaning BIG crowds.
