Zdravo Svetoslav.

Yes, this is a bad panorama.
Stiching is quite good, but there are some mistakes that you made.
First, taking a panorama shot, or any shot with photographing the shine of the sun is not very advisable. You could have blocked the sun by hiding it behind a tree. This way you can use longer exposure to bring out more details.

Second, sun flares just look colourfull but they are not a pretty element, at least not for me.

Third,if you use the sun in your composition, try to put it on a side, not in the middle of the composition.

These are all points that could be used on any photo, not a panorama ones.

About how to make better panoramas, I would advice you to make many pictures about 90 deg away from the sun with different parameters. This means if the sun is on the west like here, try to picture as many as you like pictures of the south or north side. Then by finding the best looking photo, just use those parameters for the rest of your photos. You have to use the same parameters by using Manual settings (usually under the letter M) for the rest of the photos.
With that settings, even this picture qould have looked a lot better.
I tried to adjust the gamma to 2.5 on the lightness channel. You can see the result in the WS.
