The situation is intrinsically politically charged; Bahrain are a major shareholder in McLaren.

I suspect McLaren will compete even if it means their cars racing through small-arms fire across the track.

Now that might liven up this(and others)race, if the race is stopped will this mean an end to violence, no, does the poverty in Brazil mean that they shouldn't race there, do the recent riots in the UK mean that Silverstone should be cancelled, politics and sport do not and should not mix. Off to watch todays practice.

I'm quite liking Hamilton's new helmet design.

I think Button could have cracked it but made a couple of mistakes...
