The circus flew 11,000 miles to the other side of the world to wreak havoc. Now Formula 1 has left Australia again – leaving many unanswered questions and bringing them to Europe.
One thing is clear: it was a tragedy in the final in Melbourne, in which the drivers, teams and even the world federation FIA went completely off track.
Have you learned nothing from the controversial 2021 World Cup final in Abu Dhabi, when race director Masi was determined to do one more lap of the race to have a “fair” ending?
The outcome is known: Verstappen became world champion eleven innings before the end when he overtook Hamilton with fresh tires.
This Sunday, Verstappen deservedly won ahead of Hamilton and Alonso. At least this can be written in the history books without shame.
The rest is a mess with two red flags in the last four laps and a force last lap – no overtaking. Of course, those who know the rules will reconcile everything again. But this nonsense was unworthy of a sport that makes billions and has hundreds of millions of TV fans.
In the final sprint, the sport was trampled underfoot because the crashes could have been bridged with a safety car phase both times. Even winner Verstappen said: “The two red flags were unnecessary.”
But you just wanted to create an artificial tension with restarts. In the end there was one big loser: Alpine (which lost both cars in a direct accident duel) and a big winner McLaren-Mercedes, who made twelve championship points from four at once.
