FOTA united on...um...we're not actually sure

Following the announcement that the Bahrain Grand Prix will be re-scheduled to later this year, FOTA members' press offices were in high gear to re-assure us all that they're going to have a good, hard think about it and will let us know what they think as soon as they do, in case they say something now and Williams breaks ranks. Again.

Renault had this to say:

No doubt you want to know what we think but we're going to wait a while and talk and establish what it is we're thinking, even though our boss has just said we have no problem going there.

Red Bull were equally opaque on the matter:

We acknowledge the decision taken by the guys who'll gain the most out of this decision out of all the F1 community and we'll be meeting to discuss a joint statement with the other teams, just in case our principles turn out to be unpopular.

McLaren haven't said a single thing, though since they are owned by Bahrain they are probably pleased that the country's return to peace has earned them their race back and are glad those nasty Iranian terrorists who have been fiendishly posing as a significant section of the population for years didn't win.

The one major figure to speak out so far has been Mark Webber, but Helmut Marko has insisted it was Sebastian Vettel doing a terrific Aussie accent.
