    Verstappen won his second title at Suzuka last year with over 90,000 in attendance for the grand prix which was run in heavy rain.

    Stop 👏 hosting 👏 events 👏 in 👏 Qatar.

        It’s just a quote from the article. Point being it shows how unpopular events in Qatar are.

        That said I think it was a sprint.

    That looked like such a miserable experience for everyone involved. What a stupid location.

      Not safe for women or lgbtqia+ people, hot as all hell, located in a place that has nothing to do other than attend this race. Why would anyone go here
