Further, speaking about the reforms in the Formula 1 around the world, the ex-chief executive noted that he did not notice any changes.
"Little has changed. In the end, Formula 1 is as good as the people who participate in it, that is, the teams, are interesting," Ecclestone said.
In addition, the ex-chief executive noted that it would be better to return to the V10 engines.
"Four years ago I said that we would have problems because of the engines. It is necessary to allow teams to use more fuel, increase its consumption and return refueling. I think that would make a difference. But that's my opinion. Better yet, if we go back to the V10 engines," Ecclestone said.
The ex-chief executive also spoke about the prospects of increasing the number of races.
"Once there was a maximum of 16 Grand Prix races, but I was able to add to them one race, then another race. I think 20 stages a year is a good number," Ecclestone said.
