Couldn't agree more Andy

I used to watch Nigel Mansell and then Damon Hill - at times edge of the seat stuff - now BORING. If you watch old film clips of James Hunt and earlier you realise how sanitised it has all become.

Why not just have two rules, A standard safe cell for the driver & no dangerous driving - other than that just say " There's the track, 70 laps, pit if you want, First over the line wins & that's it!"

F1 seems to have become the same as certain other institutions - so far up it's own b*m that it's forgotten what it's there for.
