Australian Grand Prix to dodge Djokovic drama with blanket ban on vaccination exemptions

The Australian Grand Prix will enforce a blanket ban on all COVID-19 vaccination exemptions, making it mandatory to be vaccinated in order to participate.No medical exemptions will be accepted for unvaccinated participants in the Australian Grand PrixThe event is scheduled to go ahead with full crowd capacity in April

"To come into the event you'll be 100 per cent vaccinated and there won't be an exemption sought for anyone from anyone."Mr Westacott said the Australian Grand Prix Corporation had worked out its COVID policies well before the recent Novak Djokovic saga at the Australian Open. Andrew Westacott says the COVID settings for the Australian Grand Prix have been in development for a year and a half.

And Scott Morrison can’t use it as a distraction from some disaster of his. ScottytheFailure ScottyDoesNothing ScottyMustGo australianGP

Did we learn something maybe 🤔🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

No wriggle room and no ambiguity.

Quick syringe of engine oil is said by Mr Trump to be okay. Readily available at the Pitts.

So you're saying Djokovic was trying to come back here disguised as a F1 driver, without vaccination?

See CraigTiley , not really that difficult is it?

So rather than discrimination on the downlow, they are settling for outright segregation with zero scientific evidence to back it up. Good job Australia 🤡

The difference is they already are. They aren't fuckwits like some other sportspeople. Wait and see what Kelly Slater does

Another unethical organisation.

😂😂😂

If its a top to bottom rule it leaves no wriggle room Djockovic's deal was messy. But then he didn't make it any better

Ok. But can the Race Director just change this rule on a whim without notice, consultation or precedent? IStandWithLewisHamilton MercedesAMGF1 LewisHamilton

Trust those Petrol Heads to be sensible about it ❗️

Smart!

you mean the same blanket ban they had on the tennis that DAN stated was in place.... yeah right

Why does a government enforce a vaccine mandate when they have members of their own political party that will not declare the vaccination status? Kinda hypocritical? auspol AusOpen

Shouldn't be a problem as the FIA have required vaccination for a long time. One of the first sporting bodies to mandate vaccination (or genuine medical exemptions)

So, the same rule the Feds have in place now & back in November, which were advised to Tennis Australia & known by Victorian Government. Cool, cool.

Here's the thing, it's a simple rule that even simple people, like anti-vaxxers, can follow.

Excellent Eat that anti vaxxers

Good move, now mandate vaccinations for the whole country including masks.
