Re: Formula 1 2014 Season
I don't have a problem with the safety car - I think we live in a day and age where we'd end up with too many stoppages for safety reasons, rightly or wrongly. And in fairness we may not have had driver fatalities for ages, but we have lost stewards. I do have a problem with standing restarts, though.
I'm undecided about the radio clampdown. In fairness, it's not a new rule, rather an intention to enforce an existing regulation. Part of me wants the drivers to just driver and figure things out for themselves - the one that does a the best job will have the best results. But then part of me thinks that it is supposed to be a team sport - and we don't ban in game coaching from other team sports.

Re: Formula 1 2014 Season
Was even a reasonable race in the end. Car trouble aside Hamilton should go on to win this championship quite comfortably now - and he has been better than Rosberg all year so that's fair enough. Great weekend's work from JEV, shame for Button. Not going to comment on Williams

Lets just hope his car is reliable as it only takes 1 retirement for the positions to get reversed again.

Re: Formula 1 2014 Season
Double points deciding it in the last race would be terrible.

Re: Formula 1 2014 Season
Wow! It's all happening now. Vettel's off to Ferrari, Alonso's going back to McLaren (which can't be easy), Daniil Kvyat is stepping up to Red Bull (perhaps JEV will earn a reprieve?!) and it looks like Button might just be about done.

Re: Formula 1 2014 Season
Personally l think what RB have done for Vettel he has been pretty disloyal to them in my opinion.
