Most sporting events always face the same tessitura about the choice between sport or spectacle. In turn, most of them offer these two types of content, but they never satisfy everyone. The same thing happens in Formula 1 and there are many opinions that indicate this This sport should focus more on putting on a good show that entertains the fans, and the last one to put himself in this position was Flavio Briatore.
Large sums of money are moving in the big circus, which is why they are trained to perform at the height of very few competitions. Therefore The Italian suggests that these expenses, instead of focusing on the technical department, should be used to create an entertainment product at the highest level for all Formula 1 fans. The Alpine consultant has now analyzed the cost control and expressed how to manage this situation in an interview with’automotor und Sport’.
Bet on the offer
Since the first races, Formula 1 has changed dramatically, from regulations, individual seats, workers in teams… That is why this change of vision argues that Briatore would give to the competition that he wanted to take a look back and remember the reason for the existence of the race:”Why are we running? To entertain spectators. The viewer does not care how many people work in teams. For them, the car does not look different if 300 people work on it instead of 2000.”
Transalpine is not new to this world and knows it well, besides, this is not the first time he has shown himself in relation to this issue. Already at that time he argued about the need to see better fights on the track and did not change his thinking. “We should invest our money better in the show. We need a gladiatorial battle and not an arms race of components that don’t make a difference.”, Explains one of the Alps. His desire is that this be changed for the future, for the sake of all Formula 1 fans.
