New policy will allow no exemptions to be granted Will apply to all drivers, teams, media and hospitality guestsFormula One staff must be fully vaccinated against Covid-19 under new FIA rules. The policy drawn up by the sport’s governing body will be written into the regulations for the new season and will apply to all drivers, teams, media and hospitality guests. It is expected that no exemptions will be granted.
The sport hopes the rule will avoid a repeat of the
Novak Djokovic fiasco that overshadowed the buildup to this month’s
Australian Open. All of the grid’s current drivers are understood to be vaccinated.
