It will be the first time in history that Formula 1 has to follow local customs within the paddock , something that already happened in the Dakar Rally when it landed in the Asian country in 2020. The instructions will have to be followed especially in public spaces and are directed especially to female staff where they are prohibited from wearing some clothing items.
The dress code requires men to wear long pants, long-sleeved shirts and not to wear short-sleeved shirts or suspenders and ripped shorts or pants that can reveal the knees. Men may wear shorts on the circuit and on transfers from the circuit to the hotel if they are part of their team's official dressing room.

In the case of women, the demands are even greater, they are also asked to wear long-sleeved shirts, long pants and skirts and pants above the knee, bikinis, dresses and torn pants are prohibited, as well. as they ask that they do not wear transparent fabrics or makeup that is too marked.
They also recommend that the collar is not low-cut and that jackets and raincoats are worn whenever possible, something surprising if one takes into account that the temperature can be between 26 and 31 degrees Celsius. And when it comes to the code of behavior, they should try not to show excessive gestures of affection in public or use language that could be considered inappropriate.
Formula 1 has not made any communications about it and according to what they have sent from Saudi Arabia, these requests are not only for the arrival of Formula 1 but it is something that is usually asked of all visitors to the country, and they ask that they adapt to local customs. The director of Prema, Guillaume Capietto has decided to position himself on his social networks in this regard: "Today we received the dress code for Jeddah. As a man I understand that I cannot wear shorts, so I am going to buy some skirts, that they are only forbidden for women. Formula 1 continues to enter controversial countries, which they are trying to make evolve. On the one hand it is true, because women do not have to use nicabs", assured the Italian.
