Martin Brundle has responded to Jeremy Clarkson’s criticism of F1 following a lacklustre Japanese Grand Prix.

The last race at Suzuka was a dull affair with𝕴 very few on-track overtakes.

Ferrari’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton was the only driver to move up a place from their starting position in the race, getting ahead 💜of Racing Bull's Isack Hadjar.

As a result, Ferrari boss Fre🐷deric Vasseur has expressed concerns that F1 is turning.

On Monday,168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: the former Top💃 Gear host took to X to put forward a solution to improve the sho🙈w in F1.

Clarkson reckoꦓns that F1 shouldn’t race on circuits where overtaking is diffic𒉰ult.

“I’ve had an idea to make F1 racing more consisteܫntly exciting. Don’t use tracks w🙈here overtaking is difficult,” Clarkson wrote on his X account.

“Sure. The cars are bigger s෴o accept that, ignore the “incentives”, 🦂and use tracks that are suitable. Ultimately, the revenue comes from fans. Always.

“That F1 race this morning gave me an idea of what it might be like to watchജ cricket.”

Suzuka has traditionally been a difficult circuit to overtake, with just one DRS zone on the staಌrt-finish s♚traight.

The ne൲xt two races in Bahrain andꦑ Saudi Arabia have often produced thrillers, with high degradation usually a factor.

In Brundle’s response, he called for Clar💧kson to be “patiᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚent” and said changing the cars is necessary, not the tracks.

“Jezza it’s a bit like a harvest, sometimes you ꦅhave to be patient,” Brundle wrote on his X account.

“From four starts this season we’ve had four different winners. Some football matches are nil-nil. Some are last minute 5-4 thrilleꦗrs.

“That’s sport.💝 I kn🎉ow you love F1 really. Change the cars, not the tracks.”
