Fans should learn more about F1 before they judge - Hakkinen
Former McLaren driver and double world champion Mika Hakkinen has added his own perspective on the labeling of F1 as a boring procession, especially during the season opening Bahrain GP held the previous month. Echoing similar words by Fernando Alonso, Hakkinen has advised fans to educate themselves more about the technical and behind the scenes aspects of the sport.
"People have to have a deeper and better understanding of F1 and understand what the driver is going through and what the teams are doing,” Hakkinen explained to New Zealands 'Weekend Herald' newspaper.
"They should study it. If you just turn on your television and watch the grand prix and watch people go around and around, it’s boring and you change the channel. The more knowledge you have, the more interesting it is."
