Formula 1 is pressing ahead with its plans to hold the season finale in the Middle East. The upcoming races in Qatar and Abu Dhabi will go ahead as scheduled to conclude the campaign.
In preparation for potential changes, Italy's Imola circuit had previously been considered as a back-up plan to finish the year. However, organizers have now stood down the Imola venue entirely.
