Farmers angry with Indian F1 Grand Prix

Farmers in India are threatening to disrupt the Airtel Formula1 Grand Prix which is scheduled to take place on 30th October 2011. The race is going to be held at the Buddh International Circuit  ( Noida) which is situated near the capital New Delhi. The farmers are demanding better compensation for their lands which had been taken for the development of the race track. The leader of the agitation Virender Dhada has said that they would start protest marches and sit-ins near the race track from 23rd October. Meanwhile both the Indian drivers Narain Karthikeyan and Karun Chandok are expected to race in this event.


Latest reports state that a multi layer security arrangement has been made for the event which will include the Delhi Police, UP Police, ex-commandos and foreign security agencies. The F1 teams are scheduled to stay at the Jaypee Green Golf and Spa resort. F1 fever is picking up in India and in the coming days the F1 race fever is going to pick up. If you have not bought your ticket for the event go and get it now else all the F1 tickets will be gone.
