I have presented this cat story through embedded Twitter tweets (below). Don’t be upset or surprised if both tweets disappear at some time in the future. If so, I apologize. The cat somehow got onto the race track. The race stewards yellow-flagged the race which means the drivers had to slow down until the cat departed. I guess it is an odd example of animal welfare in Bahrain. Or perhaps it is more to do with driver welfare! The cat presents a danger to the drivers.
Yellow flag, a Bahrain cat on the track!😼

Oh, it’s so fun when situations like that happen during games or races. I like to record them and rewatch them later.
The cat did a fast walk off the track. That was weird. Didn’t trot or gallop or run, just a weird extremely fast walk, as if he/she was videoed at a normal pace then they sped up the video. I wonder if the cat thought “How stupid was I just now in front of 50,000 humans?”
I think he thought he was crossing a regular road downtown! Just a bit noisier. At least he did not try and cross the road.
