I think they should threaten to drop this GP.

Also they need to wipe out these gangs

This has always been a common occurence at the Brazilian GP, it just hasnt happened to a world champion before afaik.
Part of the problem is the fact that there is real poverty there (unlike this country) gangs of kids/teenagers etc. live in the city sewers.There was an attempt to "wipe out" the gangs a few years ago - by a gang of policemen iirc - they went around at nightime murdering the homeless. Not the answer to the problem I dont think. ;)
Anyway, I hope Webber wins today. Dont need another cocky arrogant cheating German as world champ. :)

When I visit Sao Paulo on business I am always given a driver & taken every where by car, specifically told not to take a taxi anywhere & advised not to go for a walk in the city day or night. My local office is inside a secure compound protected by security guards - you do not nip out for a sandwich, instead they always provide lunch. It's bandit territory!

I think Spaniard is the word you were looking for Martin. ::) ;D
I agree about him, dont think the nationality needed correcting, just adding to the list. ;)
