Four-time world champion Max Verstappen voiced harsh opinions about the new regulations of "Formula 1" after the Chinese Grand Prix. The Dutch driver of "Red Bull" stated that the current races do not give pleasure to the pilots.
Idman.Biz reports with reference to the TRF1 portal that Verstappen called the races of the modern era low-quality.
"Modern "Formula 1" is terrible. If someone likes it, it means that person has no idea what "Formula 1" is. Driving a car is no fun at the moment. It's like playing "Mario Kart". This is not a race. If you overtake a competitor on a straight, then the battery runs out and he overtakes you on the next straight. I think this is just a joke," the pilot emphasized.
He also expressed his dissatisfaction with the lack of competition in the championship:
"Intrigue? In fact, only Kimi Antonelli or George Russell win, right? There is no real fight. They are miles ahead of the others. Only "Ferrari" has a good start and comes forward, after a few laps everything returns to its place again. I would say this even if I won. Because quality fighting is important to me."
