It has been the headline news in recent days that Formula 1 is taking its show-off to the next level, and instead of the traditional car reveals tried and tested earlier in the year, it will hold a public show in London.
We don’t know how you feel about it, but when we say that, we feel like we’re not at a car race again, but in a new, detached trash experience. And we’re not alone in this… In fact, Max Verstappen, who is going for his fourth world title, also didn’t accept the new F1 idea, on the contrary, he criticized it cruelly. True, not in a public appearance, but what goes on the internet, stays there…
"What is an F175? What are you talking about? No, I'm not going to watch any F1... In fact, I hope I'm lucky enough to get sick this week," was Verstappen's cruel criticism.
It would be hard to argue with the Dutchman. Instead of dissolving the regular circuses we have seen in rainy races, they would produce a usable rain tire, they would inform why almost nothing has come of the announced changes to the regulations (easier tracking, easier overtaking, less dominance, etc.), they would prefer to organize a Formula 1 circus. Will there be a ghost fight too?
