Indycar legend makes fun of Formula 1: That competition is a joke, I feel sorry for the drivers
The situation in Formula 1 is regrettable because there is no real competition and competitiveness in the race for the titles, but the results are known in advance, according to Will Power, a racer in the American Indycar series
Legendary American IndyCar driver Will Power has mocked Formula One, calling it a "joke" due to what he says is a lack of real competitiveness in the title race.
This season in Formula 1 is in its first half, and already Max Verstappen and Red Bull have a huge advantage and it is hard to imagine that anyone will threaten them on the way to the titles.
According to Power, it is a regrettable situation, and in IndyCar the competitiveness is much higher and the chances for all drivers to stand out are more possible.
- Formula 1 is a joke as far as competitiveness is concerned, but not the drivers. They have excellent drivers there. And I feel sorry for them, because they don't have the chance to experience the pleasure that we have in our competition, which is largely an open sport - says Power.
In F1, it is almost impossible for anyone to compete with Verstappen, who has won all but two races this season and has a huge lead in the overall standings.
The technical characteristics of the Formula 1 cars are crucial, and the skill of the drivers falls into the background, believes the Indycar legend, who drives for the Penske team.
