This event should be canceled - maybe you already have taken these steps.

I just asked a MXGP journalist about this and they were told by Infront today that there was nothing to worry about and the event was still planned to go...I'm kind of surprised but yet not, considering it's Infront...

I would say with the way things are looking, Formula 1 will likely be cancelling the Russian GP in Sochi, which isn't even scheduled until later in September. Aston Martin's Sebastien Vettel has already publicly stated he will not race in Russia if the series tries to go on with the event.

I think you might watch too much propaganda disguised as "news".

If ever there was an issue that could unite us, it should be opposition to Putin... but not in today's cable-news alternate reality.

For anyone who doesn't know, boycotting profitable events causes people to put pressure on their leaders, encouraging better behavior. Putin knows damn well that his actions are going to result in economic hardship for his people. It's not up to other nations to coddle them.

You only think you are watching real unbiased uncensored and unaligned news.

Luongo already spent the € 300,000 the Russian promoter paid him.

Look for a rider boycott of the event as it gets closer.

It won’t surprise me if the race goes ahead. Saudi Arabia kidnapped, murdered and dismembered journalist Jamal Kashoggi and yet our industry has no problem sending teams and riders to race the Dakar Rally even after those thugs bought the rights to it and moved it to their country.

Don't forget Kushner's 8 billion dollar weapons deal to them after Kashoggi's horrific murder. Shame his boss compliments strong arm leaders like the Saudi prince, Putin and Rocketman.

It always amazes me that you can have an absolute tragedy like this unfolding, innocent people losing their lives and heres this group of people that just cant help but make a complete ass of themselves. It never fucking fails.

Sorry for the rant ML512. I know we're trying to avoid this crap here. Just another sad day in human history.

You are either insane or severely brain washed if you think Putin is a good person and the situation unfolding is some how positive.

I can't believe something as blatant as this is somehow still dividing us... We're all fucked, this divide is getting out of control beyond anything I would have ever imagined.

"They keep voting that monster in, so yes they did." That's the naïve statement of the year. Yeah I'm sure the vote count is accurate.

This is why.

At around 18:00, Ukrainian State Border Guards announced that Snake Island had come under attack from Russian ships, during the first day of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. The cruiser Moskva and patrol ship Vasily Bykov were involved in the attack, using their deck guns.

When the commander of the Russian cruiser instructed the Ukrainian soldiers stationed on the island to surrender, or else be fired upon, the reply was 'Go fuck yourself' (Russian: 'иди нахуй').

At 22:00 (01:00 Moscow Time, UTC+2), the State Border Guard Service announced that Russian forces had captured the island following a naval and air bombardment that destroyed all infrastructure on the island. Thirteen Ukrainian border guards, representing the entirety of the Ukrainian military presence on the island, were killed during the battle after refusing to surrender. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced they will all be awarded the title of Hero of Ukraine.

Ukrainians aren't going down without a fight. 13 soldiers guarding an island tell Russian warships to go efff themselves.

At least 67 innocent Ukranian people murdered already on the first day and people wanna go celebrate the aggressor with a dirt bike race?
