Far fewer journalists at Austrian GP, but Sky Sports will be 'on site'

Due to the safety measures surrounding the COVID-19 coronavirus, a significant part of the media is not allowed to be present at the Austrian Grand Prix. Of the parties that are allowed to come, many stay at home, because the quarantine measures simply do not make it worthwhile to travel to Spielberg.

So Sky Sports will be there. In what capacity is not yet known, but presenter Simon Lazenby was able to report the following on Twitter. "For those who ask, Sky Sports F1 will be on location in Austria, hoping to bring you as close to the action as possible. We've waited a long time for it."

Ted Kravitz confirmed this message, but it remains to be seen whether both gentlemen will actually be in Austria. The FIA and Formula 1 have in fact called on the media to leave as many people as possible at home and to bring only the 'talent' necessary to deliver a good broadcast.

After that, it is important that the different TV stations work together in order to provide everyone with a good product. This could mean that only the pit reporter and the commentators are in Spielberg, while the presentation is done in a studio in the homeland.
