Formula One driver Sergio Perez is out of Sunday's British Grand Prix after testing positive for the coronavirus.

The Racing Point driver, who is Mexican, will now go into isolation.

The race on Sunday will be the fourth in the pandemic-affected season that should have begun in March.

Earlier. Perez underwent testing but the result was inconclusive so he was re-tested later in the day. The Mexican was absent from his scheduled media duties at Silverstone circuit in central England.

The procedures set out by the FIA and Formula 1 have provided for swift containment of an incident that will have no wider impact on this weekend’s event."
