MONTE CARLO, Monaco - Bomb-disposal experts carried out a controlled explosion on a suspect package in the Monaco F1 GP paddock on Thursday evening.
Security guards told Reuters a plastic container left near the entrance to the media centre was subsequently found to contain electrical cables.
SECOND TIME AROUND
The scare came with the paddock largely empty but parties in full swing on boats and at a floating Red Bull hospitality station moored next to the paddock turnstiles.
Friday is a rest day for F1 and Thursday night is traditionally a time for paddock staff to let their hair down before the hard work of the weekend.
Explosives experts were also called out in 2011 to handle a suspect package at this grand prix that is regarded as a highlight of the social season attended by corporate moguls, financiers and a sprinkling of billionaires.
