After the Australian Grand Prix, a very striking scene did occur, with several fans deciding to enter the track, creating an unsafe situation. It caused problems for the Grand Prix's race organisers, writes The Daily Star.

Lewis Hamilton looked on in disbelief and rightly warned the race organisers over the board radio. One of the fans went crazy and decided to run around the track, as 'streaker' sprinted naked through the Albert Park chicane.

'Problems for race organisation'

It did not give the man much of an aerodynamic advantage, however, as he was soon overtaken by security. It may have all ended in a light-hearted way, but the incident will still have major repercussions, with the 'World Motorsport Council' calling on the organisers to come forward. It remains to be seen what this will mean for the race organisers. It is to be expected that measures will be taken in the country 'down under' next year.
