So Seb says the cars should be made into scary monsters again :p

I would add in, bringing back gravel traps and barriers in Monaco for example. Not huge run offs. Thats just boring
What do you guys think?
I think Fred agrees :p:Quote:
Fernando Alonso says he is "too radical" to sit on the Strategy Group and give a driver's opinion on matters within F1.

I’m too radical. You need some common sense there, eh?"With a number of changes suggested following the meeting of the Strategy Group, Alonso says it shows the sport feels it needs to revert to how it was in the past.
Bah! It was better in the old days!!!
Where are you going to put a gravel trap in Monaco? The harbor?Quote:

Make the cars harder to drive again so it takes more skill. Steel brake discs and manual shifters, not semi auto ones. No kers and no movable wing flaps.
Yes because I was really suggesting putting gravel traps at Monaco :pQuote:

That would be a horrendous idea and would turn millions off to F1.
Read the article and Seb is talking about making cars hard to drive again. Thats not a bad idea.
I don't think also bringing back things to penalise mistakes is dangerous.
I am not suggesting making cars weaker or more likely to break up mid race. :confused:
Bring back the danger I say!
I love the IOM TT because it's thrilling, dangerous and the guys that do it are brave. Then again it's not money driven but is pure. I would like to see the return of gravel traps though rather than rewarding driver errors. F1 has lost a lot of its excitement over the years.
No, that's silly:D Just take the barriers away from along the water front, big runoff are, with no chance of rejoining the race.Quote:
