While this is absolutely NOT funny at A-L-L,
you've got to admit it's rich, since it
regards FIA President Jean Todt's Pet Project, for which he's been rightly
accused of spending way to much of the Formula One Circus's time & resources
upon, with F1 and Road Safety being somewhat counter culture at the very least
eh?
But the most ironic part of this is how
Formula 1's traipsing off to Azerbaijan this summer to host a Grand Prix not
only on the same weekend as the legendary 24 Heurs du Mans, but also in a
country whose roadside deaths are five times higher than the UK's; where reportedly
anybody can buy a Driver's license on the Subway! As how's that road safety
working out Monsieur Todt?
And that's before
we even get to the countless Human Rights violations, numerous Political
Prisoners or denying The Guardian access to report upon last year's European
Games! But who said Sports aren't Political; Oh Never Mind!
