One cr🐻iticism of F1’s return to Las Vegas was the lateness of the start times.

Afteꦚr theꦿ manhole drama on Friday, FP2 didn’t start until 2:30am local time, while qualifying was at midnight.

With the rac𒁏e taking place at night, the sessions were scheduled lat☂er to accommodate better for a European audience (Qualifying was at 8am in the UK, for example).

To make things more diff๊icult for the teams,✃ the next race is happening this weekend in Abu Dhabi, which is 12 hours ahead of Las Vegas.

Speaking after 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen’s 18th victory of the ye💛ar, Horner wants to see changes made to the schedule, even if it doesn’t suit a European audience.

“It’s been a big event and, like in anything, there’ll be a bit of a debrief to go thro👍ugh what was good and what needs a bit of polishing,” Horner said.

“When you look at the interest there has been in this r🌜ace, it has been phenomenal. As a first event, of course, there are going to be many lessons to learn.

“I think one of the things we look at is the running schedule because it’s been brutal for the team, and all the men and women behind the scenes. I think eve𝓡rybody’s leaving Vegas slightly fuc***.

“We need to look at how we can improve that for t🙈he future. We’re running so late at night, so maybe we run it a little earlier in the evening.

“You’re never going to keep every television audience totally happy. This is an Aꦑmerican race, so if you run at eight o’clock in🎶 the evening, or something like that, it would just be a bit more comfortable for all.”
