You're looking at the wrong map.

Maybe Iran will change its name to Irace.

no kidding.
What happens when they get to the deep end of the pool?

Wet Burkinis is true. I lived in Saudi from '76 thru '84. Not sure about Iran but in Saudi any brands associated with Israel or had a Jewish board member was banned... so no Coke(think lack of race sponsorship) but Pepsi is OK, No Ford's but GM's cool(so limited car brands and parts allowed), no Alka Seltzer, etc... and absolutely no women drivers. May not work anyway cause they'd have to be fully covered in a black burqa with only an eye slits to see thru. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Wo...qa,_Aleppo.jpg

Oh yah, if you did happen to visit(race in) Israel and get a stamp on your passport... don't try entering Iran. Lastly whatever you do... don't go hiking/walking/talking anywhere outside the race course as that will land you a jail sentence as a spy. Just some racer and/or spectator considerations should you choose to visit Iran vs. TX.
