    Whatever F1 was between 1996 and 2002. Passes were not impossible but neither too easy. Qualifying was kind of boring until the last 15 minutes but than I don't care much for q1 or q2 these days either. Rules were more simple and made much more sense. No cutting costs BS. No DRS. F1 today is a joke.

    Wings that don't look goofy and out of proportion. I thought I didn't like it when the front wing was raised higher, but then 2009 rolled around and suddenly made 2008 cars look absolutely gorgeous.

    Oh, and I really miss Imola.
