This is the scenario Dorna fears most. That a case infected with Covid-19 be declared. The news is not yet official, but the site Motorsport.com has raised the hare about a staff belonging to the Dorna television department. Is this the reason why we saw the Canal+ journalists doing their work on site in front of the circuit gates and no longer in the paddock?
The elements need to be refined, but according to Motorsport.com, the MotoGP paddock could have recorded its first positive result for Covid-19 since the start of the World Championship almost a month ago Jerez. Isolation measures have already been carried out, pending the result of a second examination.
The suspected person has already been quarantined, as required by protocol established by the championship organizer. Likewise, staff with whom the person has been in contact in recent hours have also been isolated as a preventative measure.
What about the Czech Republic Grand Prix?
There is no concern about the progress of the Czech Republic Grand Prix. Since the start of the World Championship, with the events behind closed doors and the reduction in the number of people in the paddock, anyone with access to the MotoGP paddock has been tested before going to the circuit.
Staff in the paddock also undergo regular testing and analysis to closely monitor their health and confirm that they have not been infected. In addition, anyone with access to the circuits has an exclusive mobile application for the circuit's medical services in which, thanks to geolocation, they can know the places of passage of a person who may be infected.
