The Australian Grand Prix has reportedly been cancelled after F1 chiefs and team bosses held a crisis meeting in Melbourne in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. The race was thrown into dispute earlier today when McLaren announced they had withdrawn from the Grand Prix. That was because a member of the team personnel had shown symptoms for coronavirus. It was then expected for the Australian Grand Prix to be potentially cancelled due to not every team being able to line up on the first grid of the season. And BBC have confirmed the news, citing two senior F1 officials, although there has been no official statement from the FIA.
