F1 must strive to revive its sporting product<\/h2>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\n

Formula One\u2019s 2023 season concluded in Abu Dhabi on Sunday, with Max Verstappen securing his 19<\/span>th<\/span> Grand Prix victory of the year. The Red Bull driver\u2019s dominance this season \u2013 winning 86% of GPs, the most in F1 history \u2013 has been impressive, but it has undermined F1\u2019s product.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fan interest in F1 thrives on unpredictability and close competition. With the sustained absence of jeopardy, engagement declines; this year, with fewer tight finishes and unexpected outcomes, searches for race highlights on YouTube have not reached the heights of the last two seasons.<\/span><\/p>\n

Awareness of this challenge is clear, with calls to introduce additional rules on tyre compound usage, make sprint races more meaningful, and heighten the focus on achievements such as most overtakes. With regulation changes \u2013 and potential disruption to the established order \u2013 not coming until 2026, F1 must strive to revive its product or risk stunting commercial growth.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>
