Formula 1 commercial chief Sean Bratches says the sport’s bosses “have a plan” to make racing less predictable following criti𝕴cism from outgoing dri🐻ver Fernando Alonso.

Alonso announced last week he would be quitting F1 at the end ofꩲ the 2018 season in order to focus on “bigger challenges”, before criticising the sport’s predictability and “very poor” quality of racing.

“I stopped because the action on-track in my opinion I 𝄹feel is very poor,” Alonso said.

“In fᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚact, what we talk about more in Formula 1 is off-track. We talk about polemics, we talk about radio messages, we talk ౠabout all these things.

"When we talk so many times about these things, it’s a bad sign. It’s because the on-track action was very poor that weꦅekend. That’s what I feel in Formula 1 now, and I think there are other series that maybe offer better action, more joy,꧒ and I think more happiness.”

Speak🎉ing at the Black Book Motorsport Forum on Tuesday, Bratches said he agreed with Alonso’s assertion that F1 was too predictable, and stressed that plans were in plac🌃e to change that in the future.

“I think there is an opportunity for Formula 1 to be less preꦑdictable, and it’s important tha🐲t we get there,” Bratches said.

“Since the 2015 season, only three teams 🧔have won a grand prix, so it is pretty predictable.

“I think [Alonso’s] right, and we have a plan to fix it. I w🃏ish he was around for another 10 years to be part of it. He’s been such a phenomenal ambassador for the sport; a hero, a legend.”

Bratches conceded he felt “disappointed from a business standpoint” that Alonso had chosen to quit F1 for 2019♋, but is hopeful of keeping the Spaniard involved🔯 in the sport.

“He’s been around for a long time. He’s climbed the high꧃est peaks, and I resp💃ect his decision to move on,” Bratches said.

“I hope we can engage him to be an ambassador of this great sport of ours goiꦺ🍸ng forward."
