The Qatar GP is set to go ahead at the end of November; however, fresh strikes in Saudi Arabia have raised the alarm due to the strikes' proximity to the Lusail Circuit. But despite being a small distance away, a body of water and a whole other country separate the track from the Aramco facility that was attacked. F1 is determined to finish its season in the Middle East, but will not make a call on any changes until very late. #f1 #formula1 #usgp

PROTECT THE DRIVERS

No.. they'll wait till Kimi Antonelli wins the Drivers championship first then announce they won't be racing at those two venues after that... If they said it now he automatically wins the championship and will always have it over his head that it was gifted to him by the FIA... So they'll wait till after America if he gets enough points then say it.

All about the money, we simply shouldn’t be racing in such volatile locations.

For the safety of the drivers all the middle east races should be removed.

I heard that apparently either Iran or the Houthis launched a missile or rocket or something not to long ago at a U.S Navy ship and missed by about 100 miles (160 kilometres)

I don’t think the FIA cares, as Lewis once said in 2020 “Cash is king”
