You’re right on the BBC. It’s no different from how they covered Brexit last year. Just unnecessary overexposure which creates a climate of fear, which is not what people need at this time. And that’s why I’ve given up watching the news at this time. It got to the point where I was spending too much time worrying about it. More balance is needed.

Although I understand this virus is still a bit of an unknown at this time. It’s just a shame for us motorsport fans it had to happen now just as most championships were starting
