Hoping for a deal in the coming weeks
Peace is edging nearer, but Bernie Ecclestone and F1`s warring GPMA carmakers emerged from a fruitless meeting on Saturday evening in Bahrain.

"We all hoped that the memorandum of understanding would be signed here," said McLaren Mercedes` Ron Dennis in the paddock, "but not everything ran absolutely as we had wanted. However, progress is being made.

Although it was expected that the deal might be clinched in Bahrain, sources insist that a more likely venue is Albert Park on April 2nd.
