Nascar Superstar criticizes Formula 1 fans, claiming that they are looking for attention rather than the race
In a shocking turning point in events, the legend of Nascar Kyle Busch launched a scathing criticism of Formula 1 fans, accusing them of favoring being under the spotlight rather than the race itself. The world of Formula 1 is renowned for its luxury and glamor, attracting celebrities from various sectors such as music, fashion and cinema. With races organized on prestigious circuits around the world, Formula 1 is synonymous with opulence and extravagance. However, despite the global attraction of F1, Nascar remains the dominant force in the United States.
Kyle Busch, a very estimated figure in the world of Nascar, underlined the striking contrast between the two worlds of motorsport. During an appearance on the Something’s Burning’s show by Bert Kreischer, Busch attributed this disparity to “culture”, painting enthusiasts of Nascar as “rednecks” who run in circles, while qualifying the F1 of “sophisticated engineers and intelligent people” who sail on complex tracks.
Echoing the mention by Kreischer of the charm of the Monaco Grand Prix, Busch has agreed that many participants are not real fans but rather seek to lounge in the glamor of the event. Establishing a comparison with the Super Bowl, Busch suggested that F1 spectators are more interested in being seen than in real competition, unlike Nascar fans who really immerse themselves in experience.
-Busch then established a striking parallel between F1 and Kentucky Derby, comparing the atmosphere to a rally where fashion and social status take precedence, calling it “princess vibes”.
While the debate rages between the worlds of Nascar and Formula 1, the frank comments of Busch aroused the controversy and ignited the discussions on the true essence of the Fandom in motorsport.
