I doubt it, when is the race? If the circuit and infrastructure is damaged there is plenty of time for repairs. However I'n the short term I think it's probably wrong to speculate on the race going ahead. Priority is to get everyone safe and rebuild communities
No. Plenty of time before the race.
Whilst the images porteayed are devastating, if there is one thing the Japanese are prepared for it is earthquakes. The tsunami seems to have caused most damage.Quote:

Suzuka is used to dealing with Typhoons, so it should be able to sort itself out from a the earthquake and tsunami in 8 months.
Who gives a *bleep* about a race when hundreds, maybe thousands maybe dead and many homeless!Quote:

Totally agree, for the next month at least, who cares about racing, football, manga or any other Japanese-based stuff, there's a huge tragedy happening nowQuote:

There are no problem for the F1 GP Oct. 2011.
