After all, it can’t be pleasant to suffer through the entire concert in a pair of sopping wet, filthy Jordans.
Other users also suggested that the F1 concert organisers should look into placing wooden boards to protect attendees from the mud.
However, some netizens pointed out the bright side of the situation.

Indeed, a mosh pit full of mud would make for a rather interesting experience.
With that said, it’s always better to exercise caution to prevent your laundry bill from racking up.
When attending today’s concert, do ensure you’re in proper footwear to avoid unnecessary accidents with muddy pits.
