It has been leading news in recent days that Formula 1 is taking a step forward in exhibitionism and, instead of the traditional car reveals at the beginning of the year, will hold a public show in London.
We don't know about you, but seeing this makes us feel like we're not at a car race anymore, but in a new trashy experience, detached from reality. And we're not alone in this feeling... In fact, Max Verstappen, who is on his way to his fourth world title, didn't take the new F1 idea well, and even criticized it harshly. Of course, not during a public appearance, but what's on the internet stays there...
"What is F175? What are you talking about? No, I won't watch any F1 then... In fact, I really hope that week I'll be lucky enough to get sick," Verstappen said in his harsh criticism.
It would be hard to argue with the Dutchman. Instead of solving the regular comedy seen in wet racing, manufacturing a usable rain tire, reporting on why almost none of the announced rule changes (easier following, easier overtaking, less dominance, etc.) have succeeded, they are rather putting on a Formula 1 monkey show. Will there be a ghost race too?
