Sainz: F1 needs to rethink “overdone” weekend schedule
An opening ceremony was held for the Vegas race, which F1 has invested £355 million in so far, featuring performances by Kylie Minogue and 30 Seconds To Mars. The drivers were introduced to the grandstand on raised platforms. Prior to this, some drivers participated in a golf competition as part of the newly created Netflix Cup. Carlos Sainz expressed his belief that the busy schedule needs to be reconsidered, as it feels repetitive and overpacked. While some aspects of the added showmanship are beneficial for the sport, others feel unnecessary. Fernando Alonso suggested that to accommodate the extra show, some other duties should be cut from the schedule.
