Yep, but give max the points first ala spa last year.Pull the race and never go back there.

Why would Perez be scared?Helmut Marko just apparently said on Sky Germany that max isn’t scared to race but Perez is very scared - however it’s not that different if you’re used to living in Mexico City. Proving once again what a colossal cnut he is.
The missile attack. Some drivers reportedly didn’t want to continue - there’s another meeting later.Why would Perez be scared?
I am worried about you, watch your sodium intake man.Yep, but give max the points first ala spa last year.

Just looked it up, I didn't know there was an attack before I read your post.The missile attack. Some drivers reportedly didn’t want to continue - there’s another meeting later.
Imagine if missile lands on the center of the track live on TV, the world we live in these days, not impossible.
They’re monitoring the situation and will be the first to know if a missile does indeed hit the track.Don’t worry, the organisers are in direct contact with the Saudi security authorities to ensure all necessary security and safety measures continue to be implemented.
Thoughts and prayers at the readyDon’t worry, the organisers are in direct contact with the Saudi security authorities to ensure all necessary security and safety measures continue to be implemented.
Well, he's raised your awareness of the issue.Lewis Hamilton says all the right things, but of course he doesn’t do the right things. Hypocrite? To a certain degree, but we’ve seen it all before. Speaks about human rights and his responsibility, his ability to meet with officials if need be, like they would have any interest in meeting him anyway. Probably a bit more important stuff going on than meeting a noisy and self-obsessed race car-driver.
If you want to make a statement, stay at home and boycott the event entirely, don’t show up like you’re on the fecking catwalk and speak semi-ill of the regime once you’re safely in the paddock. Again, lots of words (from a guy driving a car) but absolutely no action. He thought more about that outfit than human rights before hopping on the jet to the Saudis that’s for sure.
Just seen the statement from Domenicali and Mohammed bin Sulayem and it would not fill me with confidence If I was a driver.
They say the drivers , teams and families are safe !!
"Formula One knew about the possibility of these rocket attacks before they came out here. Prince Khalid, who is the Chairman of the circuit at Silverstone had assured the air defence systems were adequate enough to stop an attack getting through.
WTF , who wants to drive or be at a track where you could possible come under attack from missiles, it is utter madness.
Domenicali is on site and able to deal with this situation. It was a little surprising when we heard it was a deliberate attack because what is there to say what those individuals might attack next. They have never given any indication they would attack the Grand Prix itself of course but does it have to be considered a health and safety risk.
What is he going to do, kick any missiles away.
What if a 100 missiles are fired in Sunday and just one gets thought, for me the risk is far to big.
How can it be 100% guaranteed, it cant.So they’ve all met and F1 have told them race goes on which the team principles have agreed to with Toto and Helmut saying the safety of the area has been guaranteed. However, the drivers have been meeting afterwards for 30 minutes with it still going on.
They’re ballistic missiles - they absolutely cannot guarantee shooting them down. It’s genuinely absurd it has been left to the drivers. And it’s not just the driver’s safety and team principles it is also the fans, mechanics, media etc who have zero say in this going ahead.How can it be 100% guaranteed, it cant.

Horner: F1 can't be bullied by terrorism
Speaking to Sky Sports, Red Bull team principal Christian Horner said:
"The sport has to stand together collectively. Any act of terrorism shouldn't be condoned and sport shouldn't be bullied into a position. A situation like that just isn't acceptable."
"Stefano and the president are dealing with it. There's all the assurances from the organisers and we will be going racing."
I actually agree with Horner, to a point.
When does not bowing down to terrorism become not worth the risk.
One stay missile in to the track on Sunday would be horrendous
They shouldn't even be there if he or any of them are going to start claiming some moral compass.Horner: F1 can't be bullied by terrorism

Also that.They shouldn't even be there if he or any of them are going to start claiming some moral compass.
fecking torturers and murderers. The Rulers, not just the freedom fighting terrorists.
You beat me to it but yes, why are we even going to watch any of it? I won't be.Also that.
No chance.You beat me to it but yes, why are we even going to watch any of it? I won't be.

I agree with both of you, there should be no Saudi race.That’s nice in theory, but it’s a severe safety concern and all this talk or guarantees is utterly ridiculous.
They shouldn’t have been there in the first place, but money.

Fully agree with you.Is it terrorism when Saudi Arabia are bombing the feck out of Yemen? They targeted an oil depot. They shouldn’t be racing there fullstop.
