Bahrain Grand Prix will go ahead as planned despite continuing concerns about coronavirus, BBC reported. Chief executive Chase Carey said “all systems are go” for the race in Hanoi. “The Vietnam Grand Prix will take place on 5 April in Hanoi. And to anticipate another question, we do plan to proceed with the race,” Carey told BBC. Vietnam GP boss Le Ngoc Chi said the country was “ready” for its inaugural race.

“We can’t wait to welcome the the world to Hanoi very soon,” Chi said. Carey added that the Bahrain Grand Prix, scheduled to be the second race of the season on 22 March, would also happen, a week after the first race in Australia. “We’re heading to Melbourne, heading to Bahrain and heading to Hanoi,” Carey said.
