LEWIS HAMILTON will miss the Sakhir Grand Prix after testing positive for coronavirus. Hamilton returned a positive test just days after winning the Bahrain Grand Prix. The results are also sent to the FIA and, should there be a positive test, that person and their team would be notified. While the world champion felt “mild symptoms” it was the pre-event test that delivered a positive result. It was the same for Sergio Perez, who tested positive ahead of the British GP and was forced to miss out. This is standard procedure where those in the bubble remain in isolation following the results of further testing.
