World champion Lewis Hamilton blasted Formula One chiefs for "having no idea" about the sport as blueprints ahead of a 2021 overhaul and plans to experiment with a reversed starting grid next year came under renewed fire on Friday.
"In my opinion, the reverse starting position is an excuse - because they don't dare make any decisions," said five-time world champion Hamilton on the sidelines of the Russian Grand Prix this weekend.
"They have a bad approach and daren't make any decisions.
"Why do cars have to become heavier? Catching up is still a problem and I stick to that position."
"If this is what you want, then you don't understand a thing about Formula One."
