via racer.comMadring’s first Spanish GP was more smoke than fire, but can a few tweaks light it up?The inaugural Spanish Grand Prix at the Madring Circuit was marked by a lack of overtaking, leading to criticism from drivers and teams. Despite some moments of excitement, such as Liam Lawson's overtaking maneuver, the overall racing action was minimal, particularly after the opening lap. Lando Norris, who lost his lead due to a poorly timed Virtual Safety Car, highlighted the need for track changes to enhance overtaking opportunities, while Kimi Antonelli echoed these sentiments, emphasizing the need for revisions to certain corners.
Drivers and team principals expressed a willingness to collaborate with race organizers on potential modifications for the future. Mercedes' Toto Wolff noted the circuit's challenging nature and the importance of creating a layout that allows for more competitive racing. The feedback from the drivers has been well-received, and there is optimism that adjustments can be made to improve the racing experience at Madring for the next event.
