We want our sport back!
Couple of years back some teams were planning to start a new race series of their own. i was hoping they would but it never materialised. If it did, I am sure we would be watching their races today with lots of excitement. All it takes is... wipe all the current nonsense away and begin with a clean slate.
cheers

Found this picture amusing. Hey look Kimi drives with his eyes closed.
Seriously,... just look how ugly the cars are this year. Tyre has green band. WHy not introduce white wall tyres next ???
The front spoiler is way too large. It goes beyond the front tyres which will be easily knocked off if it touches another car too.
The rear spoiler looks like a matchbox size square and out of place. Some rear spoilers on Ricer Hondas have longer ones... (much like the front spoiler on the F1 car... hahahaha)
And look what a messy design the car is on the sides. Its just terrible. Everytime I see them going round in a procession on race day just puts me off even more. Suddenly the AMG pace car is more exciting to view than these F1 cars.
F*** FIA for messing about with the rules for car design.
cheers

Try watching MotoGP for a start. I promise you, it will not let you down for overtaking and excitement. 
In F1,.. you like to watch a procession, then you are watching the right program. hehehe..

There's no limit the the FIA's greed...
Now they want a 40 million ? limit (some 45 mill € or 50 mill $) to the F1, but excluding
marketing-
FIA fines- (!)
agency-
windtunnel test-
testdrivers !? (no testing allowed) and driver-
costs.
These teams will get some technical shortcuts and a new commission(!)
will be founded to check out these new rules!?
And for the possible three new teams they will give a generous
10 million US $ help.
Of my f**king gosh.
These old farts are not from this planet. :thumbsdown:
I have been a big fan of the sport some 25 years now, but I guess this will be it
