F1 raced in Las Vegas for the first time sin💯ce the 1980s over the weekend i👍n what was a highly controversial event.

Reigning F1 world champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen was🐟 critical of there being too much emphasis on the show, rather than the sport its♌elf.

It seems another mul💫tiple world champion isn’t a big fan of the event, with Alonso giving a🌊 negative opinion on the Vegas circuit.

“There is not꧂ much fun to drive at this kind of circuits, at 360kph, with no ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚgrip, no visibility and bouncing like hell," Alonso said.

“I know fro🤪m the outside, the show maybe looks good, but these cars are not made to go around corners at 80kph.

"It is what we are doing, but I don't think that this is the only way🌜 to go - we need to keep the traditional races as well, where the Formula 1 car can shine.”

‘‘I was facing the wrong the way, so I am happy with the final re🌄sult and scoring some points.
