SIlverstone at risk as UK government stands firm on travel restrictions
Formula 1’s hopes of holding two races at Silverstone early in the 2020 season are all but over, with the UK government set to opt against giving elite sport exemptions over travel restrictions. Arrivals in the UK will be forced to quarantine for 14 days from June 1, but a number of sports were lobbying to be on a list of exemptions because they would be carrying out regular and stringent testing in order to restart. However, sources have told RACER that elite sport is unlikely to receive such approval, and even though the government might allow a degree of flexibility after three to four weeks, that would come too late for a race to be held at Silverstone in July and August.
