New rules for F1 in 2011.
Complete list of rules.
*head scratch* There's a curfew now? http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/88685
Also, someone needs to explain to me the new tire rules.
I just read it and my reading comprehension skills are just insufficient to wrap my head around those rules.
Hell, draw a diagram if you have to!Marco Simoncelli 1987-2011

Tyre rules pretty much the same as this year, which is a shame.
The curfew rule is a decent idea.Please 'like' our facebook page http://www.facebook.com/motorsportforums

As Mark says the rules are more or less the same as before.
Let me know when they decide to enforce the rules in a proper way, that will be the day.Michael Schumacher The Best Ever F1 Driver

Hmm, I'll really have to wait to see what the results of the cleaner driving initiative are. There are cases when this is really a good idea - it seems to have become acceptable this season to cut a corner to keep a car from overtaking you, which is completely wrong, and some of the (Schumacher) moves definitely need to be looked at harder.
But I hope that this doesn't just penalise anyone making a slightly daring overtaking move - there's too little overtaking as there is, and it looks like overtaking in the pits is on the way out too.

I quite like the curfew idea, esepcially as teams are allowed to have 4 exceptions per year-maybe a little much but it gives the best of both worlds.
107% is as expected back-Meaning we will probably see 22 cars per race with no HRTs qualifying, which I will boldly predict giving the state they are currently in.......Congratulations Sebastian Vettel. Champion of the season of seasons.

Well I guess they needed something to compensate for the removal of the team orders ban. I mean, what would we do if the rule book was less than 800 pages and/or logical and simple to understand and follow? Oh the horror.

Scenery is nice, but Rally2's on these type of roads aren't that interesting to watch at least
