Formula One races in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia will be cancelled or rescheduled as the Middle East war engulfs the region, a source with knowledge of the matter told AFP.

“The F1 in Saudi and Bahrain won’t happen at their scheduled time,” the source said, requesting anonymity to discuss a sensitive topic.

Formula One will announce soon that the races “have been cancelled or postponed to a later date”, the source added.

Bahrain is currently scheduled for April 10-12 and Saudi a week later.
