My cousin is there filming and he says its very good security, however he keeps saying that he is slightly sh!tting it, so you have to think it cant be that secure. told him to come home and ile go in his place.

Government uses murder and torture against its own people, becasue of this they can screw millions out of them and give nothing back. Government then tries to legitimise itself by hosting big sporting events like an F1 race. To do this it uses some of the money it extorts from its people and gives it to Bernie, due to lots of torture murder and riots the race had to be canceld last year. To solve the problem evil murdering dictators then decide to bribe Bernie with even more money, why not ? They can steal more after all.
If F1 is not political then it should not be taking money from evil dictators and governments, the second it does that it becomes political and deserves a boycott by any person with any sense of morality.

That link to the site saying F1 is down must be a load of rubbish Jack, i was on live timing while the first and 2nd practice were on today with no problems. There are 11 front line servers to the site, try clearing your cache.

Why have you not started a thread on the plight of the Bahrainis in the past?
What is your intention to help the matter once the GPs have been there this week and gone out of sight and mind for another year? What do you actively do to help?
Do you suggest as a nation we involve ourselves with another countries politics? if yes why, we are not America! Do you think it would be a good idea for the UK government to wade in and stabilise the country? What reason should we boycott the GP as Labour seem to be suggesting.

If they are going to do anything it'll be when they're guaranteed maximum exposure, it wouldn't be worth them alerting people to the security flaws by doing something in free practice and having the government triple the security etc prior to race day.
If you are looking at history of this conflict/uprising,you are only notice(protests etc) about this when F1 coming to Bahrain after that nobody care(maybe Amnesty International),what is there.
And about the who have truth,its everything only about the money,nothing more,nothing less

We will discuss what ever we want to thank you very much.
Too be honest, I couldn't give two hoots about the political problems in Bahrain, but I do care about the driver's and teams risking their lives by entering what is clearly, a very dangerous place at the moment.

Death race 2000 all over again then 
Women: 10 points
Teenagers: 40 points
Race officials: 50 points
Children under 12: 70 points
Senior citizens: 100 points (Local hospitals have "Euthanasia Day" during the race in which the wheelchair bound elderly are lined up in the road, smiling and patiently awaiting their death by turbo car)

maybe Bernie took offence at not showing support as they didnt run in P2, as FOM supply the pictures maybe Bernie had a word and they didnt get the coverage as a punishment for not showing a unified front F1 wise, so he has hit them in the pocket sponsor wise, or at least their advertising.

Yet it was first thing on the lips of the ITV news reporters after saying "good evening".
I love how all these news TV companies selectively report...just shows what a farce they all are. How ITV got a "BAFTA" for coverage is beyond me as they are no better and just as selectively biased, especially when it comes to political bias and national scaremongering- equal if not worse than the BBC!
