Renault F1 boss fears empty grandstands until 2021

Spectators may not be able to return to grands prix until the 2021 season, according to Renault DP World F1 Team boss Cyril Abiteboul, due to the coronavirus and associated economic risk. The pandemic has prompted a redrafting of Formula 1’s calendar and regulations, with the FIA approving ‘Closed Events’, at which there is a vast reduction on attending personnel. Part of the stipulation of Closed Events is that no spectators are permitted access to the venue. All eight rounds confirmed so far are set to be Closed Events though Formula 1 chiefs have previously expressed optimism that fans will be able to return later in the year.
