F1 cancels Bahrain and Saudi Arabia GPs because of Middle East war

Formula One has cancelled the Bahrain and Saudi Arabia Grand Prix races due to the ongoing Middle East war, with the Bahrain circuit located just 20 miles from a targeted US military base. The races were scheduled for April 12 and 19 respectively, but logistical concerns forced the cancellation decision before more freight could be dispatched. Replacement races are considered unlikely due to scheduling and logistical constraints.
