Motorsport's governing body FIA on Tuesday condemned Russia's invasion of Ukraine but said Russian and Belarusian drivers could compete in a neutral capacity, as long as they committed to its principles of peace and political neutrality.

The FIA announced the move in a statement following a meeting of its World Motor Sport Council on Tuesday, which also confirmed the cancellation of the Russian Grand Prix.
