    I guess the motoGP canaries didn’t get bombed in the proverbial coal mine, so they’ll see no reason to entertain the idea of not racing there. What a shame it would be if they couldn’t collect all that sweet sweet oil money

        Well I guess we’re going to find out. At this point I doubt the drivers are actually going to refuse to race there. I was expecting more pushback from the motoGP riders, and there was some, but clearly not enough to make the difference.

        But who knows, maybe the f1 drivers and teams feel less replaceable than the motoGP equivalents. I think it would take at least Hamilton and Verstappen refusing to race there to achieve anything. Even then, the midfield teams and drivers might just see it as an opportunity for easy points. Time will tell I suppose
