don't you get the feeling half of the race is going to be like a procession as the cars will be too heavy to challenge on another for track position until they have lost half the fuel?mcfc_nick said:this is a bit shit imo, i was always interested and saw it as a skill of the team of how quickly they can refuel and get the driver back out there, its taking something out of F1 imo.johnny on the spot said:Having read a piece in today's paper, it actually looks quite interesting. The no refuelling law is going to prove very testy for the teams- 100kg of extra weight has to go somewhere. From a safety point of view I imagine it's a nightmare- two dozen cars each filled with 250 litres of fuel flying round at very high speeds spells 'kaboom' to me.

All the cars will be in the same boat in that respect, but agree on the parade.
I prefered the re fueling, heavy cars vs light cars and tactical racing regarding fuel and stops, I do feel this season will not be as good for that reason.
Can't see Button and Hamilton getting along. Pitstops will still happen for fresh tyres so plenty of excitment should still ensue, can't wait for the season to start. My money's on Alsono because the 2 brits will take points of each other
