As I have said before, the FIA is a circus, run by a clownEd wrote:Like everything, there are at least two ways to look at it, one is why force a less than ideal setup and the other is why not give them a bit of a challenge.
The issue I have with this is to do with safety. The FIA promotes safety and introduce many regulations to enforce safety yet they go and put in a rule that could increase the risks of a crash.
Just like in 2005 when they forced a single set of tyres for the race (and we all remember what happened to Kimi at the European Grand Prix and how he missed Button by a whisker). Now we have this rule that a driver has to race using both compounds.
One of the regulations that was announced for 2008 was to drop the minimum weight of the car by 55 kg to remove 'very expensive high density' ballast yet they were going to introduce weight limits for unscheduled engine and gearbox changes. See my point ?
(Gladly they woke up to this issue and reverted back to grid penalty - although not yet appearing in the actual regulations. The regulations have dropped the minimum weight of the car by 55 kg but ballast is still allowed!! - Go figure)

Sadly there is now a quaint little village near the upper reaches of the Seinne, the inhabitants of which telephone me at odd hours to enquire as to my planned consumption......something to do with Family Planning, and the Local Economy, I suspect
