What next... F1 is so boring we need a sniper in the stands and when Charlie Whiting gives the nod (based on a FOTA supported mathematical random model) a driver gets the bullet. Boy that would spice things up.
They could even come up with an acronym and then everyone would be happy.
I think not having Bridgestone this year, could make a huge difference to the drama in F1. As for the "fake wet races"....hmmm....no. Thanks anyway, but still no.
The thing that race organizers like Bernie, Tony, and the France Family fail to understand is that things like: rain, close finishes, & three wide racing are exciting because the events are or were rare.
Who would want to see an F1 race in the (fake) rain, with 3 wide passing, and only inches determining the winner all on the last lap every week?
Do people still think the cars are ugly. I still hate these cars that look out of proportion. I still think they look like some bogan/chav/american equlivant that has put some home made wings on the car without bothering to measure.
Good looking cars help a lot with covering a bad race. Plus the cars are too reliable and too spec now - differences in the cars and wondering if the car will actually make the finish would be a good thing IMO
Support is growing but teams a secretly wary. Sounds like the teams are just being quiet until Bernie is taken away to the looney bin.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Bernie though. It would be entertaining - in a Hotwheels/Speed Racer sort of way. This is [i]racing[/i] not a scripted movie.
Idiot!
Yeah and the sooner he goes in that vehicle to the looney bin the better. Hell he's 80 or something, time to quit !!

ReplyDeleteEarly forecasts for Melbourne this weekend indicate we won't need any "fake rain".
ReplyDelete...which could be exciting.
