The record for being the shortest-ever Formula 1 Grand Prix, breaking in process, the previous record held by the 1991 Australian GP. That being said, the seven-time world champion driver suggested that F1 should actually hold a ‘free-for-fans’ Belgian GP so that those admirers of the sport can get their money’s worth who saw a painfully short contest, which in the end, made a dubious record. Fans, after all, travel long distances and in some cases, cover multiple continents to reach the venue of a Formula 1 Grand Prix. Nonetheless, upon the completion of a contest that one might not be wrong to call a disappointing event, the likes of legends- Sir Lewis Hamilton came out and spoke about the plight of fans.
Had he been around, one wonders, what might have Lauda said about Spa’s rain-marred event? Would the great Austrian, a multiple world champion, have had a colourful expression or two to say in the wake of the fact that a race did happen after all, even though for 2-3 laps, albeit in conditions that were undrivable? While as fans we all desire a wet wether race, to be contesting amid heavy rainfall or lashing rains, whatever might one call it, is a bit impractical and dangerous at the same time.
Though, that had to be the case as per the rules stipulated for Formula 1. Saudia Airlines X Aston Martin Take Your Seat Sweepstakes - Win A Trip For 2 To The Silverstone Grand Prix
