F1 / Bahrain: Ross Brawn breaks the silence

If the team principals resisted the pressure from journalists by protecting themselves under the FIA's decision, the faces and behavior of certain teams spoke louder than a long speech. However, Ross Brawn admitted on Autosport that this choice was perhaps not the best decision. If security problems worry the paddock staff, this weekend also raises ethical questions which damage the image of the discipline.

“We are here now but we will have to discuss it after the race”, admitted the director of Mercedes to our British colleagues. “ We are committed to this test and we will judge objectively based on what we have seen to find a conclusion. I find it frustrating that British politicians called for the event to be canceled once we were there. Why didn't they do it before? » Ed Milibrand, the representative of the Labor Party in Great Britain, brought this complaint to the Press Association on April 20, when the first free practice sessions were being held.
