- World champion tests negative after 10 days’ isolation
- George Russell returns to Williams for Abu Dhabi race
Lewis Hamilton will race in the Formula One season finale at Abu Dhabi on Sunday. The world champion missed the last round in Bahrain having contracted Covid-19. He has since tested negative for the virus and his Mercedes team have confirmed he has entered Abu Dhabi and is ready to take part in the full race weekend.
Hamilton tested positive for coronavirus on 30 November and has been in isolation in Bahrain since then. The Mercedes team principal, Toto Wolff, has said the team would do everything possible to put him in the car and Hamilton has said he felt great but the decision remained in the balance, dependent on a negative test.
