Interviewed on the radio
Following the success of the petition I started two days ago, I’ve been interviewed today on Radio 1 (Dutch radio station) in the MM-Magazine program. Unfortunately there was less time than expected and the guy representing RTL - the station that broadcasts Formula 1 in the Netherlands - was quite rude and was clearly trying to reach the end of the program without allowing me to say a word :|. That shows though that they are clearly not happy with the petition. Shortly after the show I got another phone call from the radio station saying that they were happy with the way I did the interview and that they thought the RTL representative was not doing himself a favour by cutting me off all the time. They also asked me to keep them informed of our progress and particularly when we submit the petition to RTL and probably also to the sponsors that showed advertisements during the race.
By now we’ve reached 6,000 signatures. You can hear the interview here (mp3, 4MB, 4:10).
And of course, you can still sign the petition here
