This is one of the worst ideas I have ever heard. It makes a mockery of the series and its rich history. F1 is supposed to be the top level of motorsport and should be above such gimmicks. The idea that a driver could have a 49 point lead in the championship and lose it in the last race due to a DNF just doesn't seem fair.

Another interesting thing is that drivers will be allowed to choose their own numbers from 2 to 99, with number 1 being reserved for the world champion should they choose to take it. If more than one driver wants the same number, then whoever finished higher in the previous season's championship will get the number, and other drivers will have to choose again. Initially, I wasn't too keen on this proposal, but I then thought about it a bit. MotoGP and NASCAR have used this for years, and it's worked, so I see no reason why it shouldn't work in Formula 1, provided it's managed correctly.

I'd imagine this was primarily a FOM decision not the FIA
Other than that I agree with you

Where's di resta going ??Jonathan said:It's just been announced that Sergio Pérez is moving to Force India for 2014, where he will partner Nico Hülkenberg.

I hate to say it, but I think he's on his way out of the sport. Such a shame, as he's been a good driver, and he was just unlucky in the second half of 2013.josht said:Where's di resta going ??Jonathan said:It's just been announced that Sergio Pérez is moving to Force India for 2014, where he will partner Nico Hülkenberg.

Now that is a shame, with a good team behind him he would have gone far within the sportJonathan said:I hate to say it, but I think he's on his way out of the sport.

Yeah, I'm really not sad to see the back of Di Resta - he was utterly woeful for most of this season, as opposed to being mediocre for the majority of the last 2.
Thrilled to have Hulkenberg back on side, though I'd agree he does deserve a better team, and as for Perez... I'll have to wait and see, but I think Sutil would have been the safer bet, and he's had a lot more experience for Force India than anyone else...

F1 champion Michael Schumacher 'critical' after ski fall
Not good news at all. I just hope he manages to pull through this OK.

When things like this happen, I am always struck by people feeling the need to start well wishes with "I was never a huge fan, but..."
I know no one here has said it, but it comes across as people saying "I don't like him, but look at me, aren't I a good human being by STILL wishing him well."
Either that or it's just typical bandwagonism.

I wonder what level of acquired brain injury he will have. There ars thounds of people that end up with ABI every year. However how many people can you name that have ABI, one? Richard Hammond?
Michael may be a famous driver, but at the end of the day he has the same fight as any ABI person.

...Which should hopefully bring the plight many people suffer to the forefront once more.
