Lewis Hamilton was positive on regular testing for the virus Covid-19 and will thus have to skip the race for VN Sahir, which will be this weekend in Bahrain.
The news was confirmed by the International Automobile Federation FIA. The world champion is already in isolation, and meanwhile they have also informed everyone who has been in contact with him.
Who will race instead of the British, is not yet known, but it most likely will be Stoffel vandoorne, one of two Mercedes spare racers.
