Sheikh Abdullah bin Isa al-Khalifa, Bahrain's motor racing federation chief and also an FIA world council member, admitted he could not guarantee the safety of F1's travelling personnel next month.
"There are no guarantees in this world," he is quoted by PA Sport, after admitting "disturbances" in Bahrain are still taking place. "You could be (in danger) anywhere, even Silverstone. All I can guarantee you is you will be as safe as at any other grand prix."
Asked if there will be extra security measures in place, Khalifa answered: "No, absolutely not. It will be life as normal. We've never had any violence towards foreigners simply because they are foreigners or in F1." (GMM)
