The Falsification of Formula One

[opinionated ow]

As if this year's Formula One wasn't contrived enough


Formula 1 will introduce standing restarts after safety car periods from next season, after the FIA ratified a number of rule changes for 2015.


F1 is also set to adopt 'sparking' titanium skid planks for next season, which were trialled successfully by Nico Rosberg and Kimi Raikkonen during the recent Austrian Grand Prix.

You can add even more to it. Less testing. Less CFD & Wind Tunnel. One less engine.

In all honesty what are they trying to do? I feel a blog post coming on...

They're tyring to improve the spectacle, but I just don't know in whose eyes. Perhaps it's in the eyes of those who don't see it today?
