F1 Austrian GP 2020: Schedules and where to watch

SARS -CoV-2 seemed unlikely to affect the world of sports. Motorsport was proceeding with the 2020 Australian F1 Grand Prix, the first race of the year for the premier category.

Something they should have considered earlier, as it wouldn't have pleased the attendees... nor the teams who had brought all their equipment and paid for the logistics to get everything to Australia for nothing. And even worse, it would have exposed everyone to the risk of infection.

Now that things have calmed down a bit, it seems the 2020 F1 World Championship will indeed begin this weekend. It kicks off with the Austrian Grand Prix at the Red Bull Ring . This is the first race of a complicated season, overshadowed by the possibility of new outbreaks and with a compressed calendar, which will pose logistical challenges for the teams (even though some races will be held at the same circuit to save money).

Okay, so if you don't want to miss the 2020 Austrian F1 Grand Prix, you know you can watch it on Movistar F1 . They'll be offering all the usual content, although the trackside reporters and studio crew will have to adhere to extra hygiene and social distancing measures. Team personnel, race officials, and the media broadcasting the sport will all do their best to make everything seem as normal as possible.
