CWG opening ceremony was better than Olympics: Bernie

CWG opening ceremony was better than Olympics: Bernie
NEW DELHI: There's nothing much that gets Bernie Ecclestone worried. However, it seems the negative publicity of the Commonwealth Games before they began did make the Formula One boss anxious.

As soon as the Games got over, Ecclestone came rushing to Delhi to have a close look at the preparations for the Indian Grand Prix, the F1 race scheduled to be held next year.

In the Capital for less than 24 hours, Mr E managed a full inspection of the 5.14 km-long track and even indulged the media in a little tête-à-tête. If he came fearing the worst, the F1 honcho went away a happy man.

"I couldn't be happier about what I saw today. If the race was next month even then I would say the track is in great shape," Ecclestone said.

"A lot of people were worried about how things were here after reading about the Commonwealth Games. I thought that the opening ceremony was better than the Olympics and the World Cup," he added.

Jaiprakash Gaur, head of the Jaypee group which is building the track, was also at hand to promise an even better event next year in October. "October 30 will be an even grander affair," Gaur said.

The Indian Grand Prix will be the 18th race next year.

CWG opening ceremony was awesome.

But think hard, In goro ne pehle tumhari be-izzati kardi duniya mein, ab taarif kar rahe hain, ab kya faayda? Damage has already been done. Instead of chest thumping, proper inquiry should be done what went wrong, how bridge collapsed, who was responsible for dog ****, snakes, pan masala stains.

The number of people left homeless after Beijing olympics in China are soo much more than what were left after CWG Delhi.

OK, Its his personal opinion. Why we bother? yes we liked it but why it needs to be compared with some other event.

Please stop being pretentious.

A praise for an even can take a form of comparison with the other events...there is nothing wrong in it.

Bernie is worried the bad press from the CWG's would hurt his profits for the Delhi F1 race. This is PR for his F1 races, don't take it personally.

Are the ToI so desperate for praise that they'd dig up trash like this?

Did Bernie tell this to you personally?

A statement from the chief of a global sport has much more credibility to not being regarded as 'trash' as compared to that from an obscure computer warrior sitting somewhere in the globe dancing on the keyboard.

Oh I think its the other way around given the forms of governments.

What for? Money. Bad press for the CWG hurts his F1 event in Delhi. If you can't spot his motives, well.

 

[Minimalist]

If you can't spot his motivation for saying this, you're an idiot.

keyboard dancer out.

I can spot...and smell...a lot of things including a burning rectum. I hope you do correspond to that, Mr. Keyboard dancer
