Following initial disruptions from the Middle East conflict—including a cancelled Pirelli tyre test in Bahrain and travel chaos for the Australian GP—Formula 1 is now focusing on contingency plans for the Bahrain Grand Prix (April 12) and Saudi Arabian Grand Prix (April 19). Escalating tensions have led to the WEC postponing its Qatar opener, with venues like Imola, Portimão, and Paul Ricard under consideration amid safety concerns.
A day after initial reports of mounting concerns, the Bahrain Grand Prix appears set for cancellation amid Iran's attacks on Gulf targets, while Saudi Arabian organisers intensify efforts to secure the Jeddah event for the 2026 Formula 1 season.
