Perspective: Police escorting Verstappen crystallized a new era in F1

Now it is certain. The show determines the pace in the formulas, writes Itualehti’s F1 editor Juuso Taipale.

The Miami GP was all right.

Without the end-of-life safety car, Sunday’s curvature would have gone down in the history books as a gray number, now there was so much fuss that someone might even make it years later.

So the competition itself. It’s sure everyone will remember the race weekend themselves. The Miami GP pushed the formulas by force towards a time when the show is king and a by-product of the sport itself.

My colleague Janne Palomäki put the matter into words before the race. The Miami GP showed how F1 will be built in the future.

Exciting races and talked about track events are always of interest, of course, but mostly for motorsport fans. Glamor and good punch.

Luckily, you can get it with an easy recipe: Go to America and pick up wholesale entertainment stars. A bonus if these types of entertainment also know where they were brought.

After that, make sure your jaws of amazement or embarrassment are open enough for events. Sure, some kindly served.

I like bad humor. I couldn’t help but laugh as race winner Max Verstappen was rushed towards the awards ceremony in a police convoy. Of all the drivers, he.

Netflix ‘s Drive to Survive The battle for the pole position is otherwise ridiculously stupid) doesn’t hit, but it has to admit its success. The documentary series has brought huge new fans to the formulas from a whole new audience segment.

The F1 TV broadcast told a funny anecdote that, when true, perfectly describes the changed position of the formulations.

Four years ago, Hollywood A-Class director Michael Bay was watching the F1 race in Abu Dhabi. He was asked for a chat session from a neighboring table.

Bay inquired about the identity of the coveted type.

– Lewis Hamilton, there was an answer.

– Who the hell is Lewis Hamilton?

A quick rewind to Miami, where Bay shared a knob of formulas about the formula, saying he was a great friend of the species.

The price of the new huge popularity of formulas is hard for us lovers of old.

The security guards of the Yankee stars crammed straight ahead from the front was miserable to watch. Fortunately, F1 legend Jackie Stewart, for example, did not get under the roller.

I don’t know about you, but I myself would be in a formula bank a thousand times more likely to be with Stewart than some Hollywood celebrity.

I guess you find that you are like that now unclewhen he no longer understands modern eagles.

But forced to learn to understand and adapt. I can stand it if it’s really good for formulas.
