Lewis Hamilton had to miss one race due to testing postitive for COVID-19, but will make his return in Abu Dhabi as a Mercedes driver. The FIA have just announced this in an official statement.

The return of Hamilton

Hamilton tested positive for the coronavirus last week, which means he had to quarantine. In the meantime, George Russell made an impression as Hamilton's replacement. However, Russell now has to take a seat in Williams' car again.

For Hamilton, this is an opportunity to end the 2020 season in a positive way. With his seventh world title and eleven victories in his pocket, it's already his most successful season ever.
