I think we should return to the 2006-2015 system. It seems to work OK and people enjoyed it. This constant need to mix up the grid really annoys me.
Fastest should be at the front. Thats what its about. Fastest guy & car combo on pole, the best package of car, driver and team wins the race and the best at all combined wins championship.
If you wanted to get the top cars on track more maybe you could go for 4 sessions in the hour. 15 minutes for the first and 22 runners compete to get into the top 17? Q2 a 10 minute session. Pressure is on for drivers to get out and put laps in. Top 12 into Q3.
The same for the 3rd session 10 minutes and leaving a final 10 minute session for the top 6 cars shooting for pole position.
That would get cars on circuit more in each session and it would be action all the way. No 10 minutes to sit around knowing you are through.
Otherwise I think F1 has many problems generally. It needs to be easier and cheaper to enter. You guys may not agree, but I dont even care if a 26 car grid is filled if the bottom couple of teams are 6 seconds or more off the pace. Smaller teams need to enter like the past. However costs should not be cut to be successful.
Its always been the way that top teams can spend more. I dont quite know if I want to see more regs to cut aero and make cars more exciting and harder to manually drive. Or less regs so that people can push the limit of technology to put the cars and drivers on edge again. I would like to see two tyre suppliers again and no rules on which tyres to use. Teams should have free reign. Same with Fuel. Bring back re fueling and allow full tanks or 4 stoppers.
I guess you cant un learn whats gone before so it will be hard to get F1 back to what I personally want to watch.
I am sure though F1 needs to be more a motorsport and less a show. Cars & Drivers trying to be the fastest in quali and the race.I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy
