Mexico GP organisers demand ‘respect' after Sergio Perez controversy

Organisers of this season's Mexican Grand Prix have called for those involved in Formula 1 to be an 'example for fans around the world' at this year's event, amid recent xenophobic comments and incidents in grandstands. The Mexican GP is set to take place on October 27-29 and is usually a well-attended event. However, recent F1 races in Mexico have seen drivers booed from the grandstands, whilst racist comments have also been made. It's not just in the grandstands where racism has been an issue recently, with Red Bull advisor Dr Helmut Marko having made a xenophobic comment about Sergio Perez ahead of the Singapore Grand Prix.
