Lewis tested negative on Wednesday, before the end of the period of self-isolation in Bahrain ”.

“This allowed him fly to abu dhabi today, where it tested negative upon arrival.

George Russell returns to Williams for the last appointment of the 2020 season ″.

His replacement, George Russell, said in the last hours in view of the weekend: “I’m not sure which car I will be driving this Sunday. We are still waiting for the results of the Hamilton test. For now, let’s proceed as planned, I’m preparing as usual. I am working with the technicians and with Bono, for me it is as if I had to drive the Mercedes. And if Lewis tests negative, he will drive, he will go back to his car. “

The British driver, who shone at the Sakhir Grand Prix, denied a move to Mercedes in 2021: “I am a Mercedes driver, they are my managers. They have entrusted me, I have a contract with them and I am happy, but it is also true that I have signed for Williams until 2021 ”.
