Why F1 won't get better this season
Ferrari took the fight to Mercedes in 2017 and Red Bull joined the party sporadically too. Will that trend continue this season? Our expert reckons other factors need to change to really improve the spectacle
The first question anyone who knows I have an interest in Formula 1 asks is, 'Will 2018 be better than last season'?
My answer is very simple: why would it be? The people that can do something about the show have done nothing, and unless you are into the razzmatazz of pre- or post-event functions, I'm not sure I see any significant change on the horizon.
