Red Bull's Marko: The team is worried they will get infected

Liberty Media will not be rushed into making a decision

Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko says that the Red Bull Ring circuit is ready to host not just Formula 1, but a full support package as well.

Liberty Media have plans in place for every eventuality in 2020, but Marko insists that the Austrian Grand Prix venue will be available on the original July 5 date.

"The Formula 1 team is naturally afraid that it will be infected and wants to isolate itself as much as possible," Marko told Motorsport-Total.com. "At the same time, that's good, because the population has fear that it will be infected. Everyone is afraid, and this will make everyone extremely careful. "

Not satisfied with holding an event purely for Formula 1, Marko also wants the support championships to be in attendance.

"Formula 2, Formula 3 and the Porsche Supercup," continued Marko. "It is a message to the sport. I don't know if the normal background stories will be on TV because of the strict regulations, so maybe the support races can be broadcast in some way."

"It is also our sporting wish, because how else can you consider someone for Formula 1 next year? The young drivers also need points for the super licence, otherwise you will more or less cement the status quo in Formula 1."

The proposed event would be held without crowds and with no media.
