After testing positive, Hamilton spent 10 days in isolation at the beginning of December. The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, which is held on the Yas Marina island, is covered by extensive regulations regarding coronavirus. The seven-time world champion said he was 'devastated' to miss the Sakhir Grand Prix in Bahrain. Once in Abu Dhabi, the travelling contingent will be encamped at mandated hotels on Yas Island in a secure bubble close to the track. He secured the title after winning the Turkish Grand Prix on November 15 and flew home on the same evening.
