After the diatribes linked to tire wear and track limits, with the FIA adopting restrictive measures on the use of tires during the race, the Qatar GP ended up in controversy also due to conditions beyond the limit. The suffocating heat in the Middle Eastern venue caused several problems for the riders during and after the race, all of whom reached the finish line exhausted. Testimonies from workers inside the paddock reported that many drivers left the cockpit with symptoms of heat exhaustion. Fortunately, the organizers had moved in time, calling all the medical staff back to parc fermé to deliver supplements and drinks to the drivers. The first live television images were eloquent, showing the top three classified getting thirsty and lying on the ground before the celebrations on the podium. However, in some cases the imagination from other eras of Formula 1 has been surpassed.
