Formula One's governing body, the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), announced its decisions pertaining to Russia invading Ukraine, taking a slightly different stance than other leagues across the world.
FIA decided to allow Russian and Belarusian drivers to compete under “the ‘FIA flag,’ subject to specific commitment and adherence to the FIA’s principles of peace and political neutrality,” and until further notice, no flag, symbol or anthem of Russia or Belarus will appear in international competitions. Additionally, no international competitions will be held in either country until further notice.
Russian and Belarusian teams will not be allowed to compete, and “no Russian/Belarusian national symbols, colours, flags (uniform, equipment and car)- should be displayed or anthems should be played at international/zone competitions, until further notice.
