The coronavirus is still around in the Formula 1 paddock. Helmut Marko has revealed Red Bull had two drivers come into contact with people with positive tests but neither have tested positive themselves.

Sergio Perez had to miss two races earlier this season, but no infection has yet been detected among the other Formula 1 drivers. Still, the virus is not far away. Two Red Bull drivers have been in contact with people who tested positive for coronavirus.

Girlfriend tested positive

"We had a driver whose girlfriend was infected and he was not infected. Another one was at a party with three infected people and he was also negative," Marko told LAOLA1. So two drivers seem to have gotten away with it.
