Is the protest thing still happening?

They've said the problems are at the Newcastle turnstiles.
The protest idea came out after the draw was made, but it has been very quiet since.

Good to see Ricciardo back with a seat in the RB team. As much as I admire Max, I hope it’s a tad harder for him this season. RB team to be dark horses* this season and do well. *As much as dark horses can be applied seeing as they have gone in house with Red Bull and bought a lot of parts from them.
