Button plays down safety fears

McLaren’s Jenson Button admits to placing his complete trust in the FIA with regard to this weekend’s Bahrain Grand Prix.

Formula One personnel have so far been untroubled by the myriad of protests and rallies this week, even if there is an anti-F1 slant in some places.

That was evident on Tuesday in the village of Al Dair where a 5,000-strong group of men, women and children staged a pro-democracy demonstration, but also voiced their opposition towards F1.
