exactly, it's what anyone with half a brain would do.

if they are going to do it, let's hope they wait till an exciting part of the race to bring out the safety car.

BE has joked about sprinklers to enliven races, perhaps he has now hit upon the idea of using revolutionaries to invade the track in order to make things more interesting.
perhaps put yourself in the shoes of the protesters, that's if most of them have a comfortable enough pair to their name of course wink

one of the reason's they are protesting, & one of the particular reasons they detest the idea of the GP is that none of their number would be allowed into the place even if by some small chance they could afford to.

there is a reason why the stands are empty in these places you know

then, even if they could get in unknown to the security forces do you have any comprehension of what they would be risking by doing so? torture? imprisonment? murder? & not just of themselves, what about their families? children?

there's an awful lot more at stake for these people than some paddy nutjob in fancy dress you know

Racist smile

The fact he was a "Paddy" had nothing to do with him being a "nutjob".

Doesn't bode well does it? Sunday could be very interesting indeed if trouble flares near the circuit.

Err, what? Surely the complaint is that the GP is a very high profile case of glossing over massacres et al in the eyes of the world whilst their countrymen are being killed. That it won't say, 'no, what's happening there is too unpleasant, we won't be part of the regime's business as usual'. And not, umm, that they can't afford tickets or meet the dress code.
