F1 | Wurz on races without an audience: "The drivers accept it"
“We're not fans of this solution, but it's the only way forward,” he said
Despite the general skepticism, especially on the part of the drivers (Sebastian Vettel first and foremost), Alexander Würz promoted the idea of restarting motorsport without the presence of the public in the stands, underlining how this, unfortunately, is currently the only way to return to racing. The plan launched by Liberty Media, we remember, plans a restart in Austria, with a double round on the Red Bull Ring track, obviously without an audience.
“No one in motorsport is a fan of ghost racing,” said Alexander Würz. “This road, however, is the only one to get us back on track. The times would be much longer if we had to wait for the chance to race with the fans in the stands. I am in constant contact with all the riders and the idea is almost common. They accepted it."
