The coronavirus has prevented
McLaren from participating in the
Australian Grand Prix, but now the pressure on the organisation is increasing. Can the race weekend continue? Rumours now seem to indicate no.
For example, the Twitter channel of Motorsport Broadcasting reports that it has heard from a reliable source that the staff of the TV broadcasters have been reported not to come to the circuit in Melbourne.
Everything seems to indicate that the GP in Australia will not go-ahead for the time being, but it will also take a while for the FIA and
Formula 1 to make a decision. With all events already being cancelled, it is not surprising that Formula 1 is currently considering a complete postponement of the first four races and may, therefore, choose to postpone the GP of Bahrain and Vietnam.
