Alonso: F1 should consider race delays in extreme hot weather
Drivers experienced extreme heat and humidity during the race in Losail, with many considering it the toughest race of their careers. Logan Sargeant did not finish and Alex Albon sought medical treatment after the race. The FIA promised an investigation and acknowledged that elite athletes should not be expected to compete under conditions that could jeopardize their health. The 2022 Qatar event is scheduled for December 1 to mitigate the heat issue, but Fernando Alonso suggests having the option to run later in the day if necessary. Valtteri Bottas agreed that the 2021 Qatar GP in November was much less extreme, and there should be a ceiling for acceptable race conditions. Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur stated that the Qatar event was on the limit and urged the sport to pay attention to what happened.
