Personally, I don't think the race should be happening but I will watch anyway.

Were they attacked? I thought they just had to turn round.Yes I will be watching, although the race should not be going ahead. The Force India mechanics getting attacked proves this.

Why?ps. serious lols at the people who voted no.

Id bet my last dollar they both (or if there's more now) will watch it.Why?

I believe that the 'no's will be in the minority. Most people will tune in including, I suspect, a few of those who say that they will not.

Well, personally I think it's wrong but will watch anyway. Howver, I doubt you're right about all of those who voted no; some will most likely crack, but some others will easily have strong enough principles to miss one F1 race.Id bet my last dollar they both (or if there's more now) will watch it.

The race should definitely not be going ahead, and if I felt that my watching it made any sort of difference to anything then I'd be boycotting it.
As it is, though, I'll be watching the race even though it shouldn't be happening.

It's amazing how some are so high and mighty about Bahrain but I don't see these people protesting about the far far far bigger injustices happening in other parts of the world. It's really is quite absurd.

Apolgies FredF1 I wasn't intending to paint everyone with the same brush. I agree that there will be some people who will not watch purely because of their convictions rather than because they're doing some DIY. However, when the viewing figures are out for Bahrain, I will be very surprised if they were to be lower than 2010.Easy to say so I know but...
I decided I wasn't going to watch this race weeks ago and intend to stick to my decision.
As protests go, it's quite puny and I don't care who or how many others watch the race, but my conscience tells me 'No'.

Ah seems different media have different versions. The Independent has it thus:Well they had molotov's thrown at them. But they shouldn't even be put into that situation to begin with, it's just too unstable.

Serbian MIG 21's flying above my house and 9 meter Luna-M rocket exploding half a mile away (and no one in the world cared about that) didn't stop me from watching F1, so I'll certainly watch this weekend's GP.

So do the "No's" just not watch this race or do they give up watching F1 until Bahrain is no longer on the schedule?

Sorry I don't follow your question.Since when was not watching a Grand Prix necessarily a political intervention?
Posted 19 April 2012 - 13:09
No, because I cant.
I refuse to buy Sky on moral and conscientious grounds.

This is going to be a massively contentious answer, but I'm tired of the west getting involved in middle east politics. How much has the last 15 years cost in tax? How many hospitals and schools and pensions could have been funded?
Run the race. Enjoy it. Move on. Let the local tin pots fight each other for the next 50 years. Couldn't care less what its about or who is right and who is wrong, its not our problem.
