Qatar, Abu Dhabi F1 races confirmed despite Middle East conflict

Formula One chief Stefano Domenicali confirmed on Saturday that the final races of the season in Qatar and Abu Dhabi will go ahead as planned. The announcement comes despite the conflict in the Middle East, which led to the cancellation of the Bahrain and Saudi Arabia races.

The confirmation was made during the Bahrain Grand Prix, which has been relocated to the Sepang circuit in Malaysia. "Based on the information we have, everything is confirmed for [us to stay in] Qatar and Abu Dhabi," Domenicali told French broadcaster Canal+. capturengo.com
