The ongoing Covid-19 pandemic has taken a toll on everyone across the globe. This has deeply hit countless sectors of the workforce due to a period of self-isolation, restriction movement orders and even lockdowns. Such is no different for the motorsports teams, as races have been cancelled or postponed. In light of this, PETRONAS Sepang Racing Team’s Team Principal, Razlan Razali, has made a statement to address any concerns or issues fans may have.
“The COVID-19 pandemic is an unprecedented time in our history. It has affected and impacted on the health of our loved ones, the businesses we rely upon, the global economy and the way we live our daily lives.

“Our love and passion in motorsports whether it be two or four wheels, circuit or off-road is essentially entertainment. It pales in significance to the pandemic we face and the priority is the well being and health of the global fans and our crew members.
“We remind and urge everyone to do whatever is possible to minimise the risk of spreading the virus, adhere to your respective Government instructions and stay at home.
“We stand united and in full support to DORNA, the FIM and IRTA on the changes to the calendar and steps taken to ensure that MotoGP will continue this year.”
