Antonio Giovainzzi is fed up with the fact that his adventure in Formula 1 has come to an end. The Italian driver would have liked to continue with Alfa Romeo Racing, but Frederic Vasseur's team chose for Guanyu Zhou. According to Giovinazzi, there is only one good reason.

Via his social media he says: "Formula 1 is talent, technique, risk, speed. But it can also be ruthless when money dictates the rules. I believe in small and big victories achieved on one's own merits. This was my first photo in an F1 car, the last [photo] hasn't been taken yet," Giovinazzi said.

The 27-year-old driver has already set his sights on a return in 2023. It remains to be seen which team he will join, especially since his performance in recent years has been pretty inconsistent. It is still unknown in which race class Giovinazzi will be active in 2022.

La @F1 è talento, macchina, rischio, velocità. Ma sa anche essere spietata, quando a dettarne le regole è il denaro. Io credo nelle piccole e grandi vittorie raggiunte grazie ai propri mezzi. Questa è stata la mia prima foto su una F1, l’ultima non è ancora stata scattata 💪
