I think I personally favour allow the teams more freedom to design and spend. Let them try different designs and then forget the artifical making races entertaining.
Let the teams hire great drivers and push the envelope of design and race on the edge again. That could potentially get drivers pushing the limit more which is exciting and also stop the conservation aspect all the time.
Yes costs would go up, but allow smaller teams to enter with a lower fee and buy certain elements and you get a field the size of the 90s again hopefully.
Its obviously not perfect but I think it would be a purer motorsport for that.
As for circuit, I stand by the fact I would get rid of some of the tarmac carpark tracks and bring back some older circuits.
I would return to mid 2000's levels of gravel and barriers. Not many people died or were badly injured in the mid 2000's and with stronger cars than ever now then safety surely would not be an issue.
I like the fact that F1 drivers should make as few mistakes as possible and maybe with gravel back like early/mid 2000's we get that punishment of retirement for a mistake.
I guess some will always argue safety, which I have no defence for, but retirement ffrom the race should be a threat for mistakes in F1.I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy
Maybe if they're lucky, but I think it'll take a lot of work for them to catch the Racing Bulls without Max! :)
