The problem with F1 at most circuits is that they become a procession with usually the fastest cars starting at the head of the procession. The factors that can affect the drivers place in that procession being who can start faster than the ones around him and pit strategy.

Perhaps each F1 venue should have two races on the Sunday, the second being in reverse starting order to the first. This should make for some better racing in the second race and enable cars that didn't make it past the first corner in race 1 to have a second chance in race 2.
