'It doesn't feel like it's been a boring season, even if the results on paper, you would think it would be boring' 💬 Max Verstappen's dominance in F1's 2022 season did not harm the spectacle, says McLaren chief Zak Brown ⬇️

F1’s new rules era of ground effect cars was aimed at spicing up the racing and making the grid much closer.and Red Bull early on, progress by Verstappen’s team in reducing the weight of its RB18 helped him pull clear and dominate the second half of the season.

Although Red Bull being a step clear pointed to a much less exciting storyline than in recent years when the title battles have pretty much gone down to the wire, fan interest still seemed quite high. “It certainly seems like the racing has been better,” he said. “I think everyone was concerned that cars were going to look the same. They certainly don't. There's a lot of different concepts.

The dominant team were the only one who cheated and we don't even had a fight between its drivers. Super boring!

Opinions differ, closer racing definitely happened, in the end the driver made the difference. Not as great as 2021 but still very good. Rate 2021 as one of the all time best.

Well Zak had a job in the sport so I would hope he didn’t. I didn’t even switch on given the state of the sport.

Worst season I’ve ever watched! Promoting cheating and a bully type atmosphere. That’s not a sport I’d recommend kids to look up to. RB is the one bad apple!

It wasnt an actual domination by Max, it was Red Bull car that was further developed because they overspent the budget cap. When the car wasnt driving away from everyone it was catching on fire or having battery meltdowns. costcap

Verstappen is a fake champion. 21 HumanErrorChampion 22 CostCapChampion RedBullRacingCheats

Completely agree ZBrownCEO! MAX domination, Ferrari 🤡show, Russel winning, Russel beating Hamiltrash, Hamiltrash NOT winning a SINGLE race!!! Alonso killing it, Haas getting it's FIRST EVER Pole! SUPER EXCITING 2022!!!

Super max domination is not boring. Start P11 finish P1, that's a lot of overtake actions from world champions

anyone find it weird that all disagreeing have a common denominator the season wasn't horrendous. it doesn't hold a candle to '21, but most seasons don't. we had good races and great battles between future greats. just because your guy didn't win, doesn't mean the season blew.

Of course, be ause heaps of controversial things happened, the FIA handing max another trophy, then max refusing to help his teammate just off the top of my head.

Yea, was a great year for the one time champ.

It was as boring as the Mercedes domination in 2014, 2015 & 2020. 2016 at least Nico and Lewis fought till the end and 2017, 2018 & 2019 Ferrari put up a good fight.

It was the most boring season of the hybrid era, up there with 2015.

🙄🤦🏾

If that wasn’t dull then I watched something else there was only one good one Brazil

It was so boring. The cheating team, with the fastest car, won. Cars were overweight. Tedious to watch. Utterly boring. F1 seems so determined to throw out what made the sport great, in favor of trashy spectacle. Sad.

I got bored of Ferrari's stupidity after about 8 races in. Mega yawns after that

LoL 😅 .. this man is contradicting himself inside his own warped analysis. It's almost as if he's trying not to offend someone. This doesn't even make sense .. so ridiculous 🙄

Oh no! Now he will receive 'letters' from the cult

The man who Horner shut down his mouth 😂. Poor zak

As long as lewis was not dominating, it was a good season right ZAC hypocrisy of the highest level.

It was shit

Many of the races were a borefest this season, don't kid yourself.

Yes it did

Ross Brawn disagrees and fears it could harm F1. The cost cap and new rules were intended to make a more level performance, and give smaller teams a chance to compete for wins.

There were many thrilling races this year, we didn't see a close title fight but many races were very entertaining and rb wasn't as dominant as merc before, ferrari had the faster car in the first half of the ssn but had too many issues. Also merc came closer in 2nd half

For me this was one of the dullest boring seasons in a long time. Not that many battles. I miss Alo vs Ham, Vettel, Kimi etc.

Did me...

Either Brown is trying to gaslight fans - or he wasn’t watching the same races we were - boring and predictable sums up the racing - outside the racing there was drama alright, but that’s not why we watch F1

Welcome to Verstappen’s era. You’re so lucky to be here and witness grandeur. 🤩 🔥👊🔥

We're all wrong sometimes.

It was dull and tedious. New cars are worse than previous, and the seemingly unexpected phenomenon known as 'porpoising' dominated the first part of the season, while Red Bull's rocketship dominated the races. Ferrari's qualifying pace gave the illusion of competitiveness...

Just a team boss trying to say the fact that 9 teams built shit cars wasn't boring. No one cares or remembers who finished 4th. It may be exciting for those fighting for 4th but the interest ends there

From a fan perspective I’ve seen most say it was boring, different perspectives I suppose

Pretty poor tbh

Toto won’t be happy his dog went off leash

A season where one team won by over 25s almost each race,the TD was cheated, the cost cap was breached, the teammates couldn't fight equally and the rest of the teams were lame duck experiments was entertaining! The kids PR machine needs to relax and Zac needs to get McLaren wins

I can’t even count how many seasons I’ve watched in my life where a driver has won 50% of the races. But it’s a lot of seasons. This isn’t new.

It bored me.

the fact that f1 viewership increased this season is a testament to that

It was boring! Very very boring.

Knowing the team that was helped by the fia RD to win the WDC in AD 21 exceeded the cost cap to go on & dominate in 22, is hardly making the sport exciting.

Awful season. Porpoising the main topic followed by RedBull shenanigans. The cars could follow closer, yes, but the racing was even more predictable. When drivers are saying a car starting 16th is going to win, and does, that is NOT a good season!

Nah just most boring turd season ever that’s all

People were literally turning of their Tvs… this was the most boring and criminal season.

Well it felt boring as a spectator- first time in 40 years I missed some races. Snooze fest

I enjoyed this season. The cars were an improvement from last ERA. Fights were actually happening on track and while Ferrari was still competent, we had an amazing first half of the season 👍 Definitely beats most of 2014-2020 for sure.

As someone who saw it. It was very boring and predictable.

The black driver wasn’t winning so now dominance is apparently enjoyable

Agreed. It's horrible to see that cheating is rewarded in F1, but it was a fascinating season all the same.

I really do not care what that overweight McLaren Falstaff has to say

Aghhhhh don't agree. The cars were supposed to be a lot more equal, and they were far from. Next year will be a lot more interesting. It wasn't that interesting this year.

It’s been an awful year lack of action all through the grid apart from when top cars start down the grid

Or alternatively this could read, F1 driver aimed to win his first title but his cars dominance was eventually found to be result of team breaking the rules or in layman’s terms cheating

I disagree. 2022 was the most boring season since I started watching the sport in 2003. Other teams need to step their game up next year. We can't have Red Bull dominating the way their did this year.

Bore off Verstappen

Verstappen domination did not make F1 a turn off, says BrownMax Verstappen’s dominance of Formula 1 this year did not make the 2022 campaign feel boring because of excitement elsewhere, reckons McLaren boss Zak Brown. After 8 years of Mercedes dominance on both championships it’s finally found its turning point. Every year when the season started it was the same boring prediction and outcome. Now we see just 1 year of Verstappen dominance and media already talks about a boring season? It turned me off... 🤷‍♂️ Yes it was

How Max Verstappen broke wheel-to-wheel racingA lot has changed in F1 in recent seasons, and Formula_Nerds have looked at the reigning champion's role in the current rules of engagement being written. Formula_Nerds Ahhh that lap from 1979, in today’s world, we’d have several complaints over the radio and potentially 3 or 4 “incidents” referred to the stewards…. And probably a 5 second penalty or two…. Demoralizing isn’t it……. But yep Max broke it all…. 🤔🤣
