Kot official and the initiator of the creation of this website - previously I was active elsewhere for almost 15 years -, I wanted to enter the world of reporting on Formulas 1 and other motorsports to enter something difference. We mainly focused here on comprehensive and up-to-date information of all of you, we entered the interaction with social networks, without which there is more than obviously no life. The world of Formula 1 has also taken this path. I think we did quite well and my colleague and I Marko Hanželič gained like-minded people and the case went on for almost three years. But, unfortunately, mainly at the expense renunciation free time.
Kot the first reason for this step of ours we can enumerate number of races to the growing season. This year we have 23 dirk, that's 23 weekends of news and contributions from the race itself. Sooner or later it became clear to us that this was too much. With all the love and enthusiasm of Formula 1, it is slowly too much for viewers and readers, let alone for contributors. Life does not only revolve around Formula 1, especially if you have a job, a family and also other hobbies and interests. And since the Slovenian market is small and corrupt on top of that, this is also the case you can't live, because only in this case could it cover the entire season.
Secondly, Formula 1 is under the Americans from Liberty Medium became only a hunter for the largest possible sums of money. Influence corporations, who are either co-owners or major sponsors of the teams, is too big for my taste. On top of that, the Formula 1 wagon is increasingly focusing on markets suspicious countries, who use large sums to buy global attention (sports washing) and in which there are racetracks that discourage true old Formula 1 fans at first glance. There are only racers today puppets of this system, which is otherwise politically correct outwardly, but inwardly dirty and hungry for money. Politics, which was also present in the past, today has taken on immense dimensions.
And thirdly, I mention the fact that it's new for us now prevented from entering the paddock, that is, they refuse accreditation to smaller media and they set the conditions, which the Germans, the British, the French and the Italians have - to name only the major countries of Europe. Briefly: A German with 80 million must have a minimum of fellow citizens 100.000 of physical followers, readers, members, and the same is true to a greater extent for Slovenia, which has a population of 2 million. On top of that journalists no longer allowed to enter team residences, which we were able to do in 2019. Coffee at Ferrari, lunch at Red Bullu ali Mercedes, dessert at McLarn ali Pirelli – all that falls away. And it was also a charm and a reward for your work, which you did in your spare time. On top of that, he now gives thanks Liberty Medium various people are milling around the paddock influencers in vloggers, which are especially fair to serious photographers.
What will happen now with Vmax portal? Probably it won't turn off, but rather focused on cars and maybe something else related to that. And with We finished Formula 1. Sincerely to all loyal members and readers we thank you for support, for everyone constructive comments, za praise and criticism and that you have shared us on social networks and recommended us to your friends. Stay healthy, happy, spend your free time with your family, friends, acquaintances and of course with their horses. What we have not been able to do in the last three years. Don't let the world revolve around you Formula 1, no matter how ardent a fan you are. No offense, understanding and all good...
