First Bahrain, then the bomb scare at Monaco...

Now Canadians are getting in on the act..

F1 Today said:
Angry students could threaten next month's Canadian grand prix. Protests in Montreal, regarding planned university tuition fee increases, have been turning increasingly ugly and even violent, involving the throwing of glass bottles and hundreds of arrests.

According to the French language La Presse newspaper, at least one student association has specifically threatened to disrupt the F1 race, scheduled for 10 June on the nearby Il Notre Dame. "I cannot deny that we are following this out of the corner of our eye and will continue to follow it in the coming days," admitted race promoter Francois Dumontier.

What will happen at silverstone? Bakers and Bakery workers striking over Hot Pasty and Pie Tax?
 
Who'd have thought this season would turn out to be so much fun for everyone? Bernie must be so pleased, he's always wanted to broaden F1's appeal. :emoticon-0136-giggl
 
Throwing glass bottles? With such dangerous MWD's being used it's a good job they don't have oil or they'd be up for invasion from their neighbours in the south.

They'd have to be more original than throwing bottles, the Spanish have already done that........
 
This sort of thing is precisely why F1 should have avoided the problem in the first place by demonstrating (sic) its own unwillingness to become a message board for all who feel they have a cause.

F1's foolish (in my view) show of willingness to become a Bahraini football to be kicked around by opposing ideologies, has shown it to be an ideal stage to tell the world about one's problems.

I think we should protest this point at silverstone! ;)
