Owing to the COVID-19 pandemic, Formula 1 is one of many sporting championships on hold. Admittedly, the situation is improving ever so slightly, however it will be a long time before the global situation is back to normal. The good news is that, some of the restrictions in Europe are relaxed. The best part is that Italy one of the countries where the restrictions are relaxed. So, the Ferrari company has confirmed that their factory is allowed to open its doors again.
The coronavirus pandemic originated in the Wuhan province in China, then it spread like wildfire. However, next on the hit list was Italy, the first country in Europe. The country now has more than 210,000 infections and 28,884 deaths, though they are confident that the worst is behind them.

Scuderia Ferrari is steadily resuming operation
Earlier, Ferrari announced on twitter that they are set to open the doors of its headquarters again. They insisted that the safety of their personnel and the suppliers is paramount. Luckily, the company reports that it is thrilled to return to the factory and resume work once again. This way the staff can finally get back to work, after a tough period for everyone.
However, Ferrari’s Formula 1 branch will have to stay closed for a while. This is because the latest F1 regulations decree that the factory will have to remain closed for at least 63 days.
So they could possibly be back to work soon, but ideally it won’t be open for a while. Those 63 days will cover the months of April, May and/or June. Until then, everyone is observing the lockdown rules and staying safe in their homes.
