Also the driver should not leave the cockpit after the season starts unless it is a threat to his or her life. He or she may leave the cockpit when the season ends or his services are no longer needed by the team.
Single tire racing was not interesting and will not be as they'll be racing either very hard tires or saving the tires from the moment they leave the pits. It should be all about speed and reliability, not tire preservation only. Refueling should be allowed again.Never stop dreaming because one day it might happen.

I don't think optional tire changing would affect the front runners except on rare occasions. It would mostly be the back markers who would give that stategy a shot.
Four drivers have completed the Indianapolis 500 without a pit stop and none finished higher than 5th. It has not happened since 1949 and not tried since, perhaps, 1964.Last edited by Stan Reid; 24th October 2016 at 20:48.
This is my opinion and to the best of my knowledge, that is, if I'm not joking

Ricciado passing Rosberg at the first corner denied us of a proper fight at the front between the Merc drivers for the win. Sainz was driver of the race for me.
I’m pretty sure they said since they got back to Alghero they should be able to do it.
