There are many unknowns with the F1 calendar amid the ongoing tensions in the Middle East.
F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali acknowledged the need to consider “all options” for the upcoming Middle Eastern races due to the ongoing conflict in the region.
The uncertainty surrounding the Bahraini and Saudi Arabian races next month has prompted discussions about potential alternative venues.
There is concern that the races might not be replaced if they are cancelled.
Domenicali emphasized the top priority is the safety of all stakeholders involved in the events.
A final decision on the races will be made collectively, taking into account the evolving situation and associated risks.
The recent incidents in Bahrain necessitated the cancellation of a Pirelli tyre test, leading to logistical challenges for all involved in the sport.
Despite the challenges faced, Domenicali expressed confidence in managing the situation and ensuring the safety and well-being of everyone involved in Formula 1.
