If it wasn’t enough that the Japanese people have to cope with the devasting earthquake and tsunami aftermath, they now be facing radiation leakage from five of their nuclear plants.
Talking about the MotoGP race that is scheduled in April at Motegi, seems terribly senseless and even unthinkable at this point, but the “circus” is discussing the fact if the race should be canceled or at least postponed until Japan can get back on her feet again.
Dorna’s CEO Carmelo Ezpeleta speaking to Spanish website AS.
com has said “No decisions will be made until we see how events evolve this week.
I had a chance to talk to people at the circuit, which fortunately has not had any deaths among its workers and they said they suffered only minor damage.
It isn’t the circuit conditions that concerns us regarding the April 24th race, it’s the psychological state of the country.
If the Japanese express a desire to hold the race, we will do it.
If they prefer to postpone it, we will do it.
If they want to cancel the race, we will cancel it.
Japan is an important country for this sport, and our thoughts are with them in this difficult moment.
”The problem isn’t the circuit or the roads heading to circuit, but the Tokai II nuclear plant which is just 51 km from the Motegi circuit and is currently on alert, with problems to its cooling systems.
If the race is to be postponed, it would probably be rescheduled in October as it was after last year’s Icelandic volcano eruption.
