I think it's right that they're out to improve the sport. It's like many others things, people will agree with some, but not with others. But every now and then the FIA comes out of a meeting with golden smiles and then produces a document on their new ideas and it's like. SERIOUSLY, WTF ARE YOU TAKING IN THERE? - They seem to be the only ones who can see the benefits of their randomness. It's like u can tell their big wigs and politicians and not racing people at all.

It is pretty shit that Schuey and Ferrari had the rules change basically to stop their dominance, but at the same time they overcame the odds many times and proves they were the best. But agreed on the fact they had the money to do this.

Regards this whole fiasco. A budget cap IS the way to go. It doesn't dampen advance technologies, just means teams have to use their brains on where to spend it. It's also only limited to R&D if I'm correct, so they can spend whatever they want elsewhere. But this two tier thing is a shockingly shit concept.

As Alonso rightly said, we don't want a glorified GP2 championship.

They should agree on what is a right budget cap. There's no reason two entrants can't combine together to enter a team under say a £75m budget. The idea of F1 is it is the pinnacle of F1, so you do need it to be out of reach for any old idiot (see early years of 1990's and Andrea Moda for example) who thinks he can race straight off the cuff. It should be for dedicated individuals who build their own chassis and manage their team, sponsors, technical partners etc themselves, not buying a pre-packaged car and racing that.

Yeah, I love the glitz and glamour, but the track is so thin, there are very few places for proper overtaking, etc.

It's a different track, I'll give it that. Should be a fun race. I always think of Hamilton when I think of this track, so hope he does well. I was never his biggest fan, but have never hated him, I was always a Button man. So obviously, hope he wins again. I'm desperate for a Button championship. Even better, if they solidly focus on next years car now too as this one seems to have it all but sewn up. They can dominate for years to come.

Button has really already got his hands on the championship, u can't throw away a lead like that, either way brawn gp are gonna take both titles anyway.
And Give it a few years and Vettel will own F1

Vettel = Baby Schumacher

In my opinion, button could throw the rest of the year and still win the drivers champ, seeing that this year its on race wins, not points
