Qatar and Abu Dhabi are still set to host the final two races of the 2026 season, but organisers are preparing a European backup if the war in the Middle East disrupts those plans, the Formula 1 chief said on Tuesday.
Speaking to journalists after last weekend's Hungarian Grand Prix, Formula 1 President and CEO Stefano Domenicali said no decision would be made before the middle of September, giving organisers more time to assess the situation.
