Australia sets clear rules....will be interesting what pans out.
The Australian GP is the third race on the 2022 F1 calendar. Seeing the world is still coping with the pandemic, Australia has been strict with its citizens, so it is not a surprise that they would be stringent with the F1 stars.
Chief executive Andrew Westacott said as quoted by the Express, “The rules are simple to get into the country and the rules are simple to operate in Formula One. To come into the event you’ll be 100 percent vaccinated and there won’t be an exemption sought for anyone from anyone.”
“Our arrangements have been in place well before the recent goings-on at the Australian Open. These rules are understood by Formula One, they’re understood by the FIA, they’re going to be written into the sporting regulations and I’m very confident that (it) is just going to be a rite of passage to come into the country.”
There’s zero-tolerance. Whether you’re Lewis Hamilton or Valentino Rossi in MotoGP, if you test positive, you don’t race that weekend,” he concluded.
