It was only a small minority of 'fans' involved but they can't be seen as roll models and should be banned from all F1 events.There attitude stinks and their sense of humor is backward and childish. I have work doing security at the British GP every year since 2002.If i sore anybody 'blacked up' like that with racist intentions : i would kick their backsides out of the circuit personally. Keep up the good work mate. Hi Oliver,

Action has to be taken immediately and needs to be followed up if there is the slightest hint of a repeat. Alonso has to speak out to dissociate himself from this kind of behaviour and the Spanish media and NSA need to take some of the temperature out of the situation. The Spanish NSA in combination with the FIA contributed to the idea that McLaren were somehow disadvantaging Alonso last season with all the nonsense about equality stewards. This fuelled the belief in certain quarters that there was a conspiracy against their man and fuelled the resentment that results in this sort of thing.
