Raikkonen from the Netherlands GP after positive testing for Covid-19

Zandvoort (Netherlands): Driver Finland Kimi Raikkonen has been tested positive for Covid-19 and will miss the Dutch Grand Prix this weekend, the Alfa Romeo team and the racing organizers announced on Saturday.
Max Red Bull’s Verstappen, meanwhile, fled without a penalty after being called to appear in front of Steward ahead of Saturday’s final training session to answer the question of his actions during the first red flag period.
World Champion 2007 Raikkonen, 41, who retired from Formula One at the end of the season, will be replaced in Zandvoort by the Alfa Romeo Robert Kubica backup driver.
“Kimi doesn’t show symptoms and in a good spirit.
He immediately entered isolation in his hotel.
The team said a quick recovery,” the Alfa Romeo team tweeted.
“The team runs a comprehensive Close Close check and don’t expect further impact on our operations for the rest of the weekend.” The organizing organizer and the International Automobile Federation (FIA) said that Raikkonen’s positive test “would not have a broader impact on the Dutch GP”.
Poland driver Kubica, 36, won the Canadian Grand Prix in 2008 but his career was very hampered after the accident during the Andorra rally in 2011 where his right arm was cut off.
“Robert has reserves the driver …
since the beginning of 2020 seasons and has pushed the C41 team in three training sessions this year,” Alfa Romeo said.
“With 97 Formula One Starting his name and his experience with the Formula One 2021 engine, he will be ready to act and provide the best for the team.” With Raikkonen who needed a negative test before being allowed to return to Paddock, his participation at the Italian Grand Prix next weekend at Monza was also doubtful.
Lewis Hamilton, Sergio Perez and Lance Stroll all GPS missed last year because they had Covid-19 while Pierre Gasly, Lando Norris and Charles Leclerc were tested positively during the winter holidays.
Verstappen’s call by the servants came as a result of the suspicion following Aston Martin, while the red flag was flown after Mercedes Hamilton stopped on the track.
The Dutch, who was only three points behind Hamilton in the championship standings, but fled sanctions, a lot to eliminate fans of his house in Zandvoort.
