Formula 1 insists the 2023 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix does not face an increased risk of being cancelled amid speculation linking the stability of the race to the Israel-Gaza war.
The online rumour mill suggested that the 24-26 November season finale was at risk of being called off following an update from the UK Foreign & Commonwealth Office. On 29 October, the FCO updated the terrorism alert level for the United Arab Emirates to declare that 'indiscriminate' attacks are 'very likely', including at places 'visited by foreigners'. The FCO notes: 'Terrorists continue to issue statements threatening to carry out attacks in the Gulf region.

F1 has therefore moved to say that the Abu Dhabi GP is not at heightened risk of being cancelled. Motorsport.
