It turns out that the Corona also reached the Formula 1 round, this time hitting the undisputed champion.
The Mercedes team announced this morning (Tuesday) that Formula 1 champion Luis Hamilton is infected with Corona and will therefore have to miss the Grand Prix early next week in Shakir, Bahrain.
The British driver, who just two days ago won the Bahrain Grand Prix and recorded an 11th season victory out of 15 races, has developed mild symptoms of the disease in the last 48 hours.
"Hamilton has undergone a number of tests in recent days in which he has been found to be negative," Mercedes said. Easy to get sick of. "
As you may recall, in the middle of the month, Hamilton won the Grand Prix in Turkey and a seventh championship, which equaled Michael Schumacher's record.
The Briton clings to the legendary German at the top of the all-time champions table and the hand on the wheel is still tilted.
