'All media sessions with drivers in Saudi Arabia cancelled by FIA'

On Friday, the FIA decided to allow the Saudi Arabia Grand Prix and all sessions surrounding it to go ahead as planned, despite a missile attack some ten kilometres from the circuit. Following that decision, the FIA reportedly cancelled all media sessions with drivers, according to a journalist on the scene.

"I have been told that all media sessions tonight have been cancelled at the request of the FIA," reads a tweet from Formula One journalist Adam Cooper.

For now, no reactions from drivers have come in after the second free practice. If they wish to respond, they may have to do so through their own social media channels.
