F1 has asked Sky Sports not to speculate on the cause of the fire...

From what I can tell, the Aramco facility that was hit is only about 12 miles away from the track.

Edited to change the distance from 6 to 12 miles away. Earlier reports had it closer.
Saw this on Reddit showing the race site and oil depot site. A little close for my comfort!

There was no mention of that during the F2 quali that just finished so I guess they will just ignore it. They did have 3 red flags lol

Guessing Leclerc and Ferrari definitely want to race while they still have the highest point chances as Mercedes sorts out their car

The drivers have been meeting for hours and the Team principals just joined them. It is after 1:30AM there. Starting to feel like it will be cancelled.

Well apparently, they can't leave since the airport is closed. Might as well race.

This should be the nail in the coffin for any further races in the Saudi kingdom. Get the race over with and then announce that all future F1 races are no longer to be run once all F1 personnel have left the country

Flashbacks to when the WWE talent was held hostage for hours at the airport ... so im sure drivers have no choice but to drive

Guess we are back to seeing F2 deliver better on track action than F1. What a mental finish to the sprint race, but major f up from Prema/Race directors, Hauger was robbed. Juri Vips with a reliable car is Red Bull material. Helmut Marko is going to have a hard time deciding what to do with both Vips and Lawson next year

"Our friends, the Saudi's..."

One of history's most infamous lines.

Mercedes goes P11 / P14 for HAM and RUS in FP3. Worst look for them in quite a while.

Not even two quali sessions into the season, but nice to see no one driver going purple in 3 sectors consistently.

Max was purple in 1 and Charles in 2/3 last week.

So far in Saudi Max is purple in the middle and Charles purple 1/3

Porpoising? That's the new term isn't it. Regardless those cars look very uncomfortable at speed. So far anyway.
