The Williams F1 team reports a number of COVID-19 cases this week.
The Formula One season has 4 runs remaining in the 2020 program.
The constructors’ championship won through Mercedes last week, and Lewis Hamilton has an unsurpassed lead in the drivers’ championship.
A little lost in the sea of election news in the United States, the week of the nascar championship and the birthday party in Formula One of a seventh consecutive constructors’ championship for Mercedes, the ratio of more COVID-19 positive in F1.
This time it’s the Williams F1 team. Williams on Wednesday reported “a series of positive COVID-19 cases” from the last two races in Portugal and Italy.
This would possibly be a smart time to avoid everything, 4 races before the finish line, by 2020 and let’s check in March. Clearly, this pandemic and the physical condition of the team’s workers are more vital than the war for third place in the constructors’ championship.
In addition, the F1 has already announced that races in Istanbul on November 15 and the end-of-season race in Abu Dhabi (December 13) are blocking fans. The other two races, either in Bahrain (November 29, December 6) I expect limited participation. It’s not like the F1 kicked other people out as happened in Melbourne in March, when it was half a weekend to send everyone home.
Williams posted it on his website.
“Williams can verify that we have had a number of positive cases of COVID-19 at the Portuguese Grand Prix and Emilia-Romagna, and although we do not detail an individual’s personal information, we can verify that all cases were dealt with in accordance with FIA COVID -19 guidelines, running with the FIA and with the continued protection of our other people is a priority. To make sure we adhere to those guidelines, several members of our track team are also ingesting the way because they are known as close contacts of those positive cases.
“According to our internal COVID-19 protocols, several members of the factory team will hold those positions over the next weekend of the Turkish Grand Prix. I’d like to thank all the members of our traveling team-based factory and their families more for their ongoing paintings and help at an incredibly complicated time. “
OK, so it’s Williams, a pretty insignificant backmarker this year (and last year, to be honest). Big problem, isn’t it? Not that they are winning races (the team’s last win in 2012, for those who score at home) or looking for a lot.
Well, a single positive check from a McLaren team member in March, when we went to the local grocery store without a mask, was enough to avoid a full game for protecting participants and fans. has insensitive to some other report of positive control.
Formula One has been more affected than the maximum series of races across the pandemic, as expected from a series that traverses several countries that have other rates of infection and other protocols for transmitting the virus.
Racing Point saw its two drivers, Sergio Pérez and Lance Stroll, lose races. Both McLaren and Mercedes reported positive tests among team members. There are others who have flown under the radar.
Now we can upload Williams F1 to the list of those who are suffering to fill places in the lineup due to COVID-19.
This is the best time to prevent it. European countries are at different stages, high and blocking. Teams already want to be artistic and ask for exemptions from government passes so they can move from their businesses, travel and move home.
Of course, the F1 will lose valuable cash on TV when jumping the next 4 races.
The loss of workers’ equipment would be much worse.
