    Suzuka, Japan

    With all that's going on in Japan after the earthquakes does anyone think the F1 race will be off?

    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
    "I" before "E" except after "C". Weird.

    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.

    Would be nice if F1 presented the Japanese with a big fat cheque over the weekend of the Japanese GP to help the rebuilding exercise.
    Opinions are like ar5eholes, everyone has one.

    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.

    I actually agree. That's why I asked the question. I think the Japanese have far more important issues than an F1 race. I think this years F1 season is going to be a short one.

    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 now
    Fan of Timo Glock and proud of it! :champion: 3 podiums, new start as a Virgin :p

    I live in Tokyo.
    Suzuka is about 700km away from the area stricken by disaster.
    There are no problem for the F1 GP Oct. 2011.
