Speaking to RaceFans, Domenicali said, “This is a very important point, On our side, we don’t want to jump the line of vaccination.”

“For sure vaccination is very, very important and I would say that I’m looking forward to be vaccinated as, I would say, everyone should be in this moment.”

However, he hasn’t ruled the possibility of getting vaccinated to those in F1 whenever that is available. He commented, “We are for sure thinking what could be the discussion related to that.”

He added, ” So if that could be possible we will for sure discuss internally about it with the teams.”

Domenicali concluded, ” But we need to be prudent and see and respect, of course, what is the situation with all the vulnerable people.”

“We don’t want to be seen as the ones that are taking away that, for sure. So [we have] a lot of respect on what the governments are saying, a lot of respect [for] what the people will do.”
