They lose so much weight in that one race: Mrunal Thakur
Mrunal also got the opportunity to drive an F1 car and shared her experience. She said that it is really tough to sit in a car like that for hours and noted that racers lose a significant amount of weight during just a single race.
“Until I got into the car and I drove and realised how tough it is. They lose so much weight in that one race.” Mrunal said.
The interviewer said that Red Bull’s Max Verstappen has made the game boring as he is winning every race he is participating in. To which, Mrunal replied, winning too much is also a pressure. She added that if you only win, no one remembers you, but if you lose just one race, everyone will remember you
"But listen, that's also pressure, when you're winning, winning and winning, no one will remember you, but you lose one and people will always remember that."
Both the interviewer and Mrunal got trolled as one user wrote, 'Max made the sport boring itseems. Clearly came late and didn't see the most boring era of Hamilton winning.' Another one wrote, 'Another celeb showing fake interest in f1🤡🤡…please keep this sport underrated!!'
