Formula 1 has been gaining greater international popularity with every passing day, but with the fame, comes some compromises as well. And the biggest compromise is that of security. Thus, the recently-held Australian Grand Prix saw a major safety breech when some track invaders made their way into the Albert Park circuit while the F1 cars were still doing a few laps after the end of the Aussie GP.
The Australian Grand Prix Corporation has had their hands full with the task of identifying the perpetrators till now. According to the updates, they have already retrieved pictures of about six people whom they suspect to have caused the ruckus at the Australian GP. The Victoria Police are helping the organisers through the process, and it is expected that the people who were involved in the early track incursion will be identified soon.
Now, coming to the question of what might happen to the perpetrators once they are caught, the organisers have indicated towards a possible ban. They have said, “We’ve identified five or six persons of interest who breached the track early, and we want to be talking to them. It’s not something we will ever tolerate or accept and people need to realise this was a very dangerous undertaking that occurred.”
The organisers of the Australian GP want to know the motive of the perpetrators
While investigating the people who reportedly caused the incursion at the Australian Grand Prix, the organisers mentioned, “We’ll find out what was the understanding or motive, and whether it’s something they did with malicious intent or they subconsciously found themselves in that position. I wouldn’t want to jump to any conclusions until we’ve had an opportunity to chat to them.”
As of now, the Australian Grand Prix Corporation is carrying out their own investigation into the matter. They have claimed that they will present a report of their search to the FIA by June 30.
