Looks pretty bleak.
Max mosely has gone back on his decision to make F1 low tech by 08. Meaning: more stupid rules (such as the engine penalty drop), more uninspiring racing (like silverstone last week) and most importantly, many more races where the jordans and minardis are there to fill up the grid.
Not to mention, to provide an obstruction in the tunnel at monaco

I agree that the Fia do have to share the blame but as it is now with all teams having to agree on changes this must have a larger impact on performance

Not really, as it encourages a more subtle drivng style, not one where the car is thrashed (Kimi @ nurburg). Fair point on the fuel load but if you've ever watched Nascar it's rubish how a whole heap of cars drop out due to the fact the tanks empty.

I'm with you. For the single reason you could see driver reaction when there time was beaten by what they would do back out on track.
Anyone who likes F1 should vote on the formula1 website. [URL]http://www.formula1.com/news/3312.html[/URL] otherwise we will end up with the same unrealistic format

Marzman I agree with you completely and have been saying this for years. FIA always try to stop Ferrari with new rules since they starting dominating but in doing that they have made F1 worse.
The teams are ready to set up there on championship.
The tyre rule is stupid and dangerous.
94 was the best season when they could change tyres but not refuel. One tank has to last the whole race.

You know why. Every other yearferrari win a championship so they try to slow them down, and in the 2003 season it did work with the championship going to the lastrace but thisyear the changes have back fired because ferrari aren't having a good time but due to the regulations others can't even follow them.
Look at silverstone, kimiwas so much faster than michael but couldn't get past.

They all take the best line already, that's why there's no overtaking, because if they go off the line it's slower.

Well the boost thing does sound interesting, might spice things up. F1 has been getting duller every year. Every year some new rules are released and every year I dislike them and if carries on like this I can see the sport dying out but hopefully it won't.
I liked the idea Jeremy clarkson had. Pay the drivers a basic wage then a million everytime they over take. [S]Just want to add thatI like just the idea
No, Sauber had their own chassis but Ferrari engines. This new rule would enable teams to buy chassis' and engine as a stock part without having to develop it, I think.
The speed boost is only a limited thing it would seem. Only a boost of power for about 5 seconds. If it increases overtaking, why not?

Didn't sauber have a 2003 ferrari engine/chassis last season.
