Guilty verdict forJackson doctorends latest saga

Associated Press

LUCKNOW — A stampede killed 16 Hindu pilgrims and in-jured about 50 during a religious ceremony Tuesday on the banks of the Ganges River in northern India, an official said.

The stampede at Haridwar in Ut-trakhand state was triggered when some of the pilgrims tripped and fell while those behind continued to push forward, government spokes-man Amit Chandola said.

Thousands of people had con-verged on the river banks for the prayer ceremony in the temple-filled

town at the foothills of the Hima-layas where the Ganges enters the sprawling plains of northern India. Haridwar is about 300 miles (500 kilometers) southwest of Lucknow, the capital of Uttar Pradesh state.

Chandola said police had recov-ered 16 bodies from the site, and that about 50 injured people were taken to a nearby hospital.

Denpasar (Bali Post)—Existence of illegal tourist information centers was highlighted again

by tourism perpetrators. The businesses scattering in the tourist areas inBali have tarnished the image of Bali tourism by damaging the marketcompetitiveness, such as selling the tour package at lower prices.

“We expect that government could discipline the business premisesputting up signs as the tourist information center. They do not only sellthe information but also offers a tour package at the price far belowthe standard. This practice will certainly tarnish the image of tourism,”complained the Chairman of the Indonesian Tour Guides Association(HPI) of Bali Chapter, Sang Putu Subaya, Monday (Nov 7).

The man who is familiarly called by Sangtu admitted to have ever

packages that was far above the price set up by the tourist informationcenter. “I’ve got complaints from tourists because I was accused ofgiving incorrect information regarding the price of a tour package, butit has been appropriate with the price list.

Tourist informationcenters operating without permit tended to harm the image of Balitourism by selling packages at low prices. Besides, they also harmedthe local government for not paying taxes.

“Many unlicensed tourist information centers operate around Kutaand Nusa Dua. They often damage the price of tour package in Bali.Additionally, the information about Bali conveyed to tourists was oftenincorrect,” he said.

Police refused to name the sus-pect arrested last week, but releasedphotographs of him, gave his ageas 45 and described him as a well-known specialist in the history ofthe city about 400 kilometers (250miles) east of Moscow.

Russian media reports identi-fied the man as Anatoly Moskvin,

He described Moskvin as a lonerwho had “certain quirks,” but saidhe gave no indication that he wasup to anything so strange. “I sawno signs of that while working withhim,” Yesin said in a telephoneinterview.

Moskvin, who long had beenknown in the region for his interestin the dead, wrote several articlesabout cemeteries and historic sitesin the region.A linguistic expert bytraining, he speciali ed in Celticculture and studied 13 foreignlanguages.

In a 2007 interview with thenewspaper Ni hegorodsky Rabo-chy, or Ni hny Novgorod Worker,Moskvin said he had begun wan-dering through cemeteries when hewas in the seventh grade. “I don’tthink anyone in the city knows thembetter than I do,” he said.

JAKARTA - Coordinating Min-ister for Political, Legal and Se-curity Affairs Djoko Suyanto said the government would wait for the results of the police investigation into the incidents around the recent Papua People`s Congress in Papua that left some people dead.

He said the police were not alone in investigating the case as the National Commission on Human Rights (Komnas HAM) had been doing the same. The government, however, could not rely on the outcome of the investigation of one party only.

“The police are not investigat-ing the case alone, several other quarters are also involved. The police`s credibility is at stake here. Now who can say that it was TNI and police members that did the shootings. Can the Komnas HAM

do so?. Let them do it if they think so but we will wait for the results of the police`s own investigation,” he said.

Asked if the organizers of the Third Papuan People`s Congress had sent a letter to his office con-taining a notification about the event, Djoko admitted his office did receive such letter but his of-fice had never issued a permit for the congress because, like for any seminar, a congress did not require a permit from his office.

“Indeed there was a notification about it and it was no problem for a congress or a seminar to be held so long as it is peaceful as the one I attended three months ago. There was no prohibition. But declaring independence is another matter,” he said.

Regarding security in Papua, Djoko said that both TNI and the police had standard operating pro-

cedures.Asked if the provision of Free-

port funds to the police should be stopped, Djoko said “just ask the police chief about that.”

Komnas HAM had earlier said its team had found evidence of acts of violence committed by TNI and police members during a raid to dis-perse the 3rd Papuan People`s Con-gress on October 17-19 in Abepura, Jayapura, which it said amounted to human right violations.

Komnas HAM chief Ifdhal Kasim said to newsmen at the Komnas HAM office here on November 4, Komnas HAM in its investigation from October 24-27 found various facts of violence by security forces against congress participants.

He said the human rights viola-tions led to the death of three civil-ians, namely Daniel Kadepa, Yako-bus Samonsabra and Asa Yeuw.

Police Maj. Gen. Saud Usman Nasution says the company-owned car carrying six police officers was attacked Monday about 23 miles (37 kilometers) from the Grasberg mine, operated by Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc.

Police are searching for the at-tackers, who fled into the jungle after wounding a policeman in his face.

The mine in remote Papua province has large gold and cop-per reserves.

Most of its 12,000 workers walked off the job Sept. 15, de-manding that their salaries be raised from about $3 an hour to as high as $33.

Last month, two workers were shot by police trying to control a crowd and three were killed by unidentified gunmen.

JAKARTA - The government guar-antees that people`s personal data under Indonesia`s e-identity card (e-KTP) system is well secured and protected from tampering or duplication, a Home Affairs Ministry official said.

“A person`s data in the e-ID cards cannot be easily broken into because it is protected by a techno-logical systems devised by a team of experts in their fields,” Reydonnyzar Moenek, a Home Affairs Ministry official said here Monday.

But the e-ID card system also needed to be protected by all components of the nation so that people`s private demographic data could not be used by irresponsible parties, he said.

“The successful implementation of the e-ID card program requires

synergy among all components of the nation,” he said.

The ministry`s data center had so far been uploaded with the per-sonal data of 8,628,356 Indonesian citizens, and in Jakarta 2.5 million out of the capital`s seven million residents had been registered under the e-ID system.

“This shows a significant im-provement” he said.

The Home Affairs Ministry had not yet decided on the use of one out of two printing machine brands to produce the e-ID cards.

According to Moenek, the gov-ernment would prepare 13 printing machines with a maximum print capacity of 20,000 e-ID cards per day. The test machine has been run-ning for a week with printing ability of about 6,000 to 10,000 cards per day for one machine.

JAKARTA - The Energy and Mineral Resources Ministry is con-sidering to revise its regulation on the prices of electrical power origi-nating from geothermal energy, an official said.

The geothermal energy prices could not be generalized for all

parts of the country, the ministry`s director general of renewable ener-gy and energy conversion, Kardaya Warnika said here on Monday.

“Indonesia has vast territory. The condition of its areas is different from one another,” he said.

The price of geothermal energy in areas which had geothermal en-ergy sources and only fuel oils as

other energy might be higher than that of other areas in the country, he said.

He said the ministry was study-ing the idea of revising the ministe-rial regulation number 2 of 2011 on the price of electrical power bought from geothermal power plants.

“We hope that the revision will be accomplished by the end of this

year,” he said.Under the ministerial regulation,

the government requires state elec-tricity firm PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN) to buy electrical power from geothermal power plants at a maximum of 9.7 cent dollar per kWh.

The ministry`s director general of geothermal energy, Sugiharto

Harsoprayitno, meanwhile said the government would use fuel oil prices as reference to set geothermal energy prices.

“If the use of fuel oil in an area reaches 30 cent dollar per kWh, the price of geothermal energy may be higher than 9.7 cent dollar per kWh thereby it will attract investors,” he said.

The Federation of Hong KongIndustries, which representsaround 3,000 industrialists run-ning factories in China, said itexpected orders in the secondhalf of this year and the firsthalf of 2012 to fall between 5-30percent.

The European debt crisis anda fragile .S. economy havedepressed this year’s Christmasorders, Stanley Lau, deputychairman of Hong Kong’s leadingindustrial promotion body, told anews briefing.

He said a consolidation was onthe cards, with around a third ofHong Kong’s 50,000 or so facto-ries in China likely to scale downoperations or close by year-end.

“We feel that this is not anoverestimate,” said Lau, who isalso the owner of a Hong Kongwatch factory in China, citinghigher raw material costs and ris-

ing factory worker wages, whichhad already risen up to 20 percentthis year.

“Many (factory owners) can’tsee when the market will have arebound so they are trying to cuttheir losses by closing, before alltheir money is gone,” Lau said.

Lau added, however, that thiswasn’t a definitive estimate andthat a brightening of marketconditions could allow manyindustrialists to recover swiftlyand scale up capacity.

He didn’t give specifics on howmany factories might close.

ne additional risk on thenear hori on, however, was thespecter of yet another round ofexpected minimum wage hikesfrom between 18-20 percent onJanuary 1 in a number of key fac-tory regions in southern China,Lau warned.

He said his federation and a

number of Hong Kong industri-alists were now lobbying localChinese governments to free eplans for this wage hike.

“If we continue to see laborcosts keep increasing, in thefuture the Hong Kong industriesoperational pressures will be-come more and more severe,” hetold reporters.

A Reuters on-the-ground sur-vey at Asia and China’s largesttrade event, the Canton Fair insouthern China, found that manyfactory owners were now bracingfor another severe round of fac-tory closures given a sharp dropin orders from Western custom-ers, primarily in the major marketof Europe.

AS IN TON Ameri-cans borrowed more in Septemberto buy cars and attend college, butthey charged less to their creditcards for a third straight month.

-ers are growing more cautiousabout taking on high-interest debtin a weak economy.

Total consumer borrowingrose by 7. billion in Sep-tember, the Federal Reservesaid Monday. In August, ithad fallen by the most in 16months.

The September increase re-flected a 5.8 percent increase inborrowing in the category thatincludes car and student loans.But the category that coverscredit card purchases dropped1 percent after larger declinesin July and August.

Credit card use has sunknearly 19 percent since Sep-tember 2008, the height ofthe financial crisis. For manyconsumers, adding debt withhigh interest rates is too riskywhen jobs are scarce, pay raisesare few and unemployment hasbeen stuck near 9 percent formore than two years.

“Households continue toprefer cash over credit as employ-ment, income and wealth pros-pects remain feeble,” said GregoryDaco, principal .S. economist atIHS Global Insight.

The average annual percent-age rate, or APR, on creditcards ticked up for variable-rate credit cards to 1 . 6 per-cent and was unchanged at13.71 percent for fixed-ratecredit cards, according Bank-rate.com.

Auto loans are far cheaper.The average rate for a 8-month new-car loan was 5.31percent last week.

The average rate for sub-sidi ed student loans was .5percent last year, according toStudent Loan Consolidator.com.Loans not subsidi ed by thefederal government are cappedat 6.8 percent through 2012.

Earlier this year, many econ-omists worried the economywas at risk of slipping backinto another recession. In Au-gust, the government said theeconomy grew at an annual rateof just 0.9 percent in the firsthalf of the year, and Europe’sdebt crisis jolted financial

markets.Those fears have since eased.

The economy grew at an annualrate of 2.5 percent in the July-September period, the govern-ment said, the best quarterlygrowth in a year. Consumerspending grew three times asfast as it had in the spring.

Still, growth would have tobe nearly twice as high con-sistently to make a majordent in the unemployment rate,which has been stuck near 9 per-cent for more than two years.

And economists worry thatthe summer spending gainscan’t be sustained. Americansspent more in the July-Septem-ber quarter even though theyearned less. And they used theirsavings to make up the gap.

Troy Davig, an economistat Barclays Capital, said heexpects consumers to borrowmore in the coming months asthe economy improves.

“Barring any major shocks,I think we will see gradual im-provement,” Davig said. “Butwe are not expecting anythingdramatic in terms of creditgrowth.”

Without more jobs and high-er pay, consumers may beforced to cut back on spending.That would slow growth. Con-sumer spending accounts for 70percent of economic activity.

n Friday, the governmentsaid the unemployment ratedipped to 9 percent in ctoberfrom 9.1 percent, where it hadbeen stuck for three months.The nation added 80,000 jobs,barely enough to keep pacewith population growth.

Households began borrow-ing less and saving more whenthe country fell into a re-cession and unemploymentsurged. While economists be-lieve Americans will graduallyincrease borrowing in comingmonths, they do not expectconsumers to load up on debtthe way they did during thehousing boom.

Americans felt wealthierthen and were more willingto take on added debt becauseof the soaring value of theirhomes.

The Federal Reserve’s bor-rowing report covers autoloans, student loans and creditcards. It excludes mortgages,home equity loans and otherloans tied to real estate.

With the snap of handcuffs, another chapter in the bizarre saga surrounding Jackson’s life came to a close, and the man who once envisioned a glamorous career as the music icon’s personal physician was led from the courtroom. Dr. Conrad Murray was going to jail for involuntary manslaughter.

Murray’s face was grim but betrayed no emotion. In a few minutes, his life had been shattered and it was likely he would never practice medicine again.

It was a precipitous fall for a man who told his patients he had been given “a once in a lifetime opportu-nity” for which he was giving up his practice. At 58, he planned to devote himself to one patient, Jackson, who would escort him into a world of glamor and celebrity. They were going to London for Jackson’s spec-tacular comeback concerts.

All of that ended on June 25, 2009,

in a Holmby Hills mansion where he gave his difficult patient what he wanted — an operating room anesthetic that Jackson called his “milk,” the only thing the singer trusted to put him to sleep. Now Murray faces up to four years in prison, although overcrowding makes it unlikely he’ll serve that long.

Jurors heard hours of testimony about propofol, the drug that killed Jackson, and they listened while defense attorneys blamed the singer for his own death, suggesting it was he, not Murray, who injected the fatal dose. Did they believe that? Jurors weren’t saying. In fact, they said nothing after their verdict. But they didn’t have to find that Murray admin-istered the dose that killed Jackson, only that the doctor was primarily responsible for the singer’s death.

Their deliberations were short, less than nine hours over two days, pre-sided over by the foreman, a 45-year-

old management consultant who had previously been a classical musician and had served on a jury before.

Superior Court Judge Michael Pas-tor praised the panel’s dedication and was harsh in his comments about Mur-ray after the jury left the room. “This is a crime where the end result (was) the death of a human being,” the judge said. “Dr. Murray’s reckless conduct in this case poses a demonstrable risk to the safety of the public” if he remains free on bond, the judge said.

He then ordered Murray taken into immediate custody and held without bail pending sentencing Nov. 29. Prosecutors will address whether Murray should pay restitution at a later hearing and the physician is be-ing pursued by Jackson’s father in a wrongful death lawsuit.

Defense attorney Ed Chernoff said the verdict was a disappointment and would be appealed. Asked how Murray took the verdict, Chernoff said, “he’s a pretty strong guy.” Regarding Murray’s future, he said, “the keys to his hand-cuffs belong to the judge. We certainly would like to do anything we can to keep him from going to prison.”

ATLANTA — Justin Bieber will take a paternity test and then he plans to sue the woman who has filed a paternity suit against him, a representative for the teen pop star said Monday.

Matthew Hiltzik said the 17-year-old singer will take a paternity test when he returns to the U.S. within the next two

weeks. He also said Bieber’s team plans to “vigorously pursue all

available legal remedies to protect Justin.”

Mariah Yeater filed the paternity suit last week in San Diego Superior Court. She said she had just turned 19 when she and Bieber, then 16, had a brief sexual encounter after one of the singer’s concerts last fall in a backstage bathroom at Los Angeles’ Staples Center.

Bieber has said he’s never met Yeater and has denied allegations that he fathered Yeater’s 3-month-old child.

The singer was in London on Monday to switch on the Christmas lights at the city’s two biggest shopping malls. Thousands of young and most-ly female fans waited hours for Bieber to appear. Bieber traveled the 12 miles between the malls by helicopter.

The star, who won two prizes at Sunday’s MTV Europe Music Awards in Belfast, told fans that his favorite thing about London was “all the girls.” Bieber said backstage Monday that despite the ups and downs, he

was grateful for his fans.“I take it with a grain of

salt. It’s been incredible, my fans are amazing and

I wouldn’t have it any other way,” he said.

LOS ANGELES - Canadian singer Avril Lavigne and her boy-friend are recovering after being attacked outside the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood in the early hours of Sunday morning. Ce-lebrity news website TMZ.com reported that five people at-tacked Lavigne and “The Hills” star Brody Jenner outside of the iconic Hollywood hotel.

Lavigne, 27, whose hit sin-

gles include “Sk8er Boi” and “Girlfriend,” addressed the incident on Twitter. “I don’t fight. I don’t believe in it. To clear things up I got attacked by 5 people last night out of nowhere. Not cool...” Lavigne posted, adding that she had suffered a black eye, bloody nose, hair ripped out, scratches, bruises and cuts.

“So not ok to be abusive to others. Violence is NEVER the answer,” the singer said. Jenner,

28, the step-brother of the ce-lebrity Kardashian siblings, also posted about the incident on Twitter, saying “Just got of the hospital with a new scar on my face.”

No arrests have been made, although a spokesman for Los Angeles Police Department told Reuters they were aware of a “skirmish outside in that area on Sunday morning.” Lavigne’s representatives were not immedi-ately available for comment.

It’s not just a matter of aesthet-ics: Paintings based on real life can give first-hand glimpses into the environment of tens of thousands of years ago. But scientists have wondered how much imagination went into animal drawings etched in caves around Europe.

The latest analysis published on-line Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences fo-cused on horses since they appeared most frequently on rock walls. The famed Lascaux Cave in the Dordogne region of southwest France and the Chauvet Cave in southeast France feature numerous scenes of brown and black horses. Other caves like

the Pech Merle in southern France are adorned with paintings of white horses with black spots.

Past studies of ancient DNA have only turned up evidence of brown and black horses during that time. That led scientists to question whether the spotted horses were real or fantasy.

To get at the genetics of equine coat color, an international team led by the Leibniz Institute for Zoo and Wildlife Research in Germany ana-lyzed DNA from fossilized bones and teeth from 31 prehistoric horses. The samples were recovered from more than a dozen archaeological sites in Siberia, Eastern Europe, Western

Europe and the Iberian peninsula. It turned out six of the horses had a genetic mutation that gives rise to a spotted coat, suggesting that ancient artists were drawing what they were seeing. Brown was the most common coat color, found in 18 horses.

Researchers who were not part of the study praised the use of genetics, saying it supports their observations. Paleoanthropologist John Shea of Stony Brook Univer-sity in New York said he was not surprised that cave artists were in tune with their surroundings since they needed to know all they could about their prey to hunt them.

“These artists were better ob-servers of their natural environment than many humans are today,” Shea said in an email. Just because cave art was rooted in reality doesn’t mean Ice Age painters lacked creativity.

The guardians of the world’s most important standards of weights and measures have turned to the weird universe of quantum physics to try to resolve a dilem-ma. To the bafflement of scien-tists, a cylinder of metal sitting in a closely-guarded strongbox that is the global benchmark for the kilogram is changing mass.

The enigma doesn’t affect any-one who wants to buy 500-milli-gramme tablets of aspirin, half a kilo of carrots or a 50,000-tonne cruise ship. But it poses a hefty theoretical challenge to physi-cists, and complicates the work of labs which need ultra-precise, always-standard measurement.

Since 1889, the kilogram has been internationally defined in accordance with a piece of metal kept at the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (known by its French acronym of BIPM), in the Paris suburb of Sevres.

Ninety-percent platinum and 10-percent iridium, the Brit-ish-made cylinder was proudly deemed at its founding to be as inalienable as the stars in the sky. It is kept under three glass cases in a safe in a protected building, the Pavillon de Breteuil.

In 1992 came a shock: the famous kilo was no longer what it should be. Measurements made over a century showed that the prototype had changed by around 50 microgrammes -- the equiva-lent of a tiny grain of sand 0.4 millimetres (0.015 inches) in diameter -- compared to six other kilos also stored in Sevres.

“Actually, we’re not sure whether it lost mass or gained it,” Alain Picard, director of the BIPM’s Mass Department, told AFP. “The change may be to due to surface effects, loss of gas from the metal or a buildup of contaminant.” The skinnier (or fatter) kilo became more than a scientific curiosity.

WAKO, Japan — Honda’s human-shaped robot can now run faster, balance itself on uneven surfaces, hop on one foot and pour a drink. Some of its technology may even be used to help out with clean-up operations at the stricken Fukushima nuclear plant.

Honda’s demonstration of the re-vamped “Asimo” on Tuesday at its Tokyo suburban research facility was not only to prove that the bubble-headed child-like machine was more limber and a bit smarter. It was a way to try to answer some critics that Asimo, first shown in 2000, had been of little practical use so far, proving to be nothing more than a glorified toy and cute showcase for the Honda Motor Co. brand.

Honda President Takanobu Ito told reporters some of Asimo’s technology was used to develop a robotic arm in just six months with the intention of helping with the nuclear crisis in northeastern Japan.

The mechanical arm can open and close valves at Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant, which went into meltdown after the March tsunami, according to Honda. The automaker is working with the utility behind the problem plant, Tokyo Electric Power Co., to try to meet demands to bring the plant under control.

Ito acknowledged that the first idea was to send in Asimo to help out, but that was not possible because the robot cannot maneuver in rubble, and its deli-cate computer parts would malfunction in radiation.

But in Tuesday’s demonstration, Asi-mo was able to walk without falling over 2 centimeter (0.8 inch) padded bumps on the floor. It can also now jog faster than it did in 2005, at 9 kilometers per hour (5.6 mph), instead of the earlier 6 kph (3.7 mph), pushing better with its toes so its run was smoother and not as jerky.

Asimo was also able to distinguish the voices of three people spoken at once, using face recognition and analyzing sound, to figure out that one woman wanted hot coffee, another orange juice, and still another milk tea. The new Asimo got improved hands as well, allowing individual movement of each finger, so it could do sign language.

“My name is Asimo,” it said, making the signs of its words with stubby fingers. It also opened a thermos bottle and grace-fully poured juice into a paper cup.

Terry, who has strongly deniedthe allegations, was named in theEngland squad by coach FabioCapello on Sunday after originallybeing told he would not play be-cause the Italian wanted to try outyounger players in the friendliesagainst Spain and then Swedennext week.

However, an injury to Evertoncentre-back Phil Jagielka, who issuffering from a hairline fractureof the toe and is expected to besent home later on Wednesday,means Terry may be required.Capello also has central defend-ers Gary Cahill and Joleon Le-scott in his squad but could callup replacements, including RioFerdinand, the brother of Anton,who Terry allegedly insultedwhen Chelsea played Queens ParkRangers two weeks ago.

Adrian Bevington, the manag-ing director of Club England toldreporters that it was entirely upto Capello who he now picked toplay against Spain and Swedenin the second friendly on Nov.15.“What Fabio chooses to do nowwith picking John or not, in termsof playing or being captain, that’sup to Fabio to decide,” he said.

“We genuinely do not haveany input or involvement in that.In the same way with the squadselection, that was Fabio’s deci-sion amd we supported him inthat. “There were discussionswith Fabio last week and therewas absolutely no disagreementwhatsoever.”

The Terry case has split opinionin England with some arguing thatTerry is innocent until provenguilty of insulting Ferdinand and

others opposed to him being inthe team at all. Former Englandstriker Ian Wright said on Tues-day: “It seems no-one at the FAhas the balls to stand up to JohnTerry and say ‘you may want toplay, but it would be better ifyou stayed at home.’ John Terryshould be nowhere near the Eng-land squad.

“I understand the fact you’reinnocent until proven guilty butthat doesn’t mean the captain ofour country’s football team shouldbe involved in two friendlieswhile being investigated overallegations of making racist re-marks.”

In addition to several new teams stepping up to MotoGP next year under the CRT regu-lation, a number of current satellite squads are expected to ditch their pure prototypes to run CRT bikes, amid sug-gestions that the system could form the basis of MotoGP’s future.

But Stoner said he felt a move too far towards a lower-technology formula would be the wrong choice for MotoGP. “I think if we kill prototypes then we may as well be rac-ing touring cars,” he said. “It’s no different to this. It’ll definitely take everything out of the racing for me.

“I won’t find the same in-terest to the point where you can maybe get a street bike, put a different chassis on it, a bit of suspension and this and that, and have a competi-tive bike.

“This [prototype rules] is the way it’s been for so many years. There have been a few things recently about costs, which have definitely increased, and the amount of personnel needed to run these bikes. They’re definitely more complicated than the old 500cc.

“But if it does change like

that [to more production-based rules] then it’s definite-ly going to be disappointing for me and I don’t know if I’d want to be a part of it.”

Yamaha’s Ben Spies said he was also concerned about the prospects of a CRT-based future for the championship, though he acknowledged that the global financial system might force radical change.

“The way the economy’s going, I hope I have a job in 2013, so I’m not worried about a CRT bike right now, that’s for sure,” he said. “But I’m not the biggest fan of it.”

FORMULA 1 teams will get to try out an experimental soft compound tyre during Friday practice at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix as Pirelli continues to make preparations for tweaks to its 2012 rubber.

Now that the world cham-pionships have been clinched, Pirelli has been evaluating its options for next year - and this will include the soft tyres being trialled at Yas Marina on Friday, plus a limited number of 2012-spec rubber being made avail-able for the post-event young driver test.

Speaking about the plans for the weekend, Pirelli director of motorsport Paul Hembery said: “At this point in the season, our emphasis is obviously on refining our tyre choices for

next year, which is why we are seeing some new tyres during free practice here and the young driver test.

“With very limited opportuni-ties for testing during the season, this is important for us to collect information as we develop our strategy for 2012, which will feature tyres that are a bit differ-ent from this year’s range.

“We’re very familiar with the Yas Marina circuit as a testing venue so we’re confident that the tyre choice we have made for the race should suit the char-acteristics of the track.

“Abu Dhabi is an absolutely fantastic facility with some good overtaking opportunities, so we’re very pleased to be celebrating our first anniversary there.”

he will have little interest in staying in the championship if the regulations are steered more towards production-based machinery. Series promoter Dorna is heavily pushing the new Claiming Rule Teams system, which allows elements of modified production machinery.
