Race had to be neutralised. Some protesters ( local farmers, environmental campaigners? ) blocked the road with a couple of hay rolls Some news agencies reported that paper spray, teargas had been used ( really can't confirm or verify this ) Anyway all cleared now and the race has been restarted! Hopefully no injuries on both sides Fingers crossed
