Officials said part of the race’s security contingent would be reassigned to reinforce wildfire response operations. In France, roughly 60,000 people were evacuated from Bordeaux’s suburbs after authorities had already cleared the Cap Ferret peninsula earlier in the week. France has mobilized about 1,500 military personnel to support firefighters, while specialist equipment and assistance have arrived from several European countries, including Germany, Croatia and Slovakia. In neighboring Spain, three fires merged near the capital, Madrid, prompting the evacuation of just under 60,000 people. A separate wildfire near Valencia killed one person, according to local firefighters.
