Covid-19 stance could rule SA's F1 medical car driver out of races

Van der Merwe, 41, and F1 doctor Ian Roberts tested positive independently for the coronavirus ahead of the race and did not travel to Istanbul, with the FIA's Formula E crew standing in.The South African said on Twitter it was the second time he had contracted Covid-19 and he had not been vaccinated for personal reasons.

“You need to comply with those requirements to enter the country and from that perspective the FIA obviously has to respect the country's requirements to get in, as will all the teams and everyone else.” “I am fully aware that I will potentially be less employable or that my freedom of movement will be restricted based on my choices,” he said on Twitter.

This is one messed up country,we have ministers who are saying that vaccination it's not mandatory on the hand the president is applauding companies who are forcefully vaccinating their workers and actually promoting vaccination on the private sector ,it won't end well .
