Should Formula 1 Race in Bahrain?

April 15, 2012 by zarganar

Should Formula 1 hold a Grand Prix in Bahrain? As Amnesty International releases a new position statement on Bahrain, we pose the question.  Join us in this debate, partly as an experiment in how to use Facebook!

YES or NO?

What do think? The position of Amnesty International (quoted in the Guardian) is

“Holding the Grand Prix in Bahrain in 2012 risks being interpreted by the government of Bahrain as symbolising a return to business as usual. The international community must not turn a blind eye to the ongoing human rights crisis in the country.”
