There's now suggestion that Haas, Alfa and a few others will undoubtedly go under if that be the scenario. Renault are considering pulling out earlier and Redbull are weighing up the viability of running two teams.

In simpler terms, this is fairly dire for the sport. Russia was one of the supposed guarantees to run but the situation has changed there and even Putin is starting to cave in to the reality. I can imagine they'd still want to run but it's a certain that teams will refuse to race in unsafe countries.
The French GP is off now as Formula 1 plan to start the season in Austria now.
