glad buton and his escorts escaped unharmed. that's really scary i just got back from south america and i can attest some parts are no joke. people here have no idea what it's like down there, such a different world. part of the problem is the lack of police, and the police they have are so corrupt. if i were driver's i wouldn't want to go to brazil to race. they should pull that race and put something else in place of it.
Reminds me of other third world nations where the only place you see a cop is in front of a government building/ officials home or pulling over a speeder for an "Instant Trial". That will be $200 cash please. Dorothy captured it; "There's no place like home".
Someone better check Bernie for Alzheimer's. He has no love for JB. He must had money on him in winning the WDC. That's why he's so pi55ed.
I remember reading a story in R&T about Innes Ireland who was in Brazil to cover the race. He was attacked while walking with his gf. along the beachfront. Scuffs and cuts iirc, Innes put up a battle but lost his watch and wallet...... Ah the good old days before submachine guns........
