Formula 1 President Stefano Domenicali stated that if the ongoing conflict in the Middle East makes it impossible to hold the season-ending races in Qatar and Abu Dhabi, the 2026 championship could finish in Europe. Domenicali emphasized the importance of this situation for the global status of the sport. He noted that if the conflict continues, these races might not be held on schedule. Therefore, the safety of athletes and fans is the top priority.
