Dirty air what makes overtaking too difficult so racing is pretty boring maybe on 80% of the races.
This exact same dirty air existed in the 70s, 80s, and 90s as well(don't forget the 00s!), they overtook perfectly fine and created the races that people always cling back to in arguments of how awful racing today is.
What are the 10 things wich are right and you risk throwing away?
The whole formula as a whole counts as a pretty big one?
so big it´s worth assuming those risks because current aero rules are responsible for boring races.
In the 80s they ran with huge barn door wings, I'm certain that those would create much more dirty air than cars do now.
Domination periods[/qute]
The vast majority of F1s history is through one team dominating all. If that's a problem, then how come so many people watch it these days? If that truly was a problem then F1 would never have taken off.
and boring races
All opinion. It's pretty much something that can't be won. Because if one thing is "fixed" they'll find another thing to complain about, and that was Tim's point when he said "For every one thing which people complain about in F1, there's 10 things which are right".
It's simple; No one says a thing when everything is okay, people only complain about what is wrong.
IMO, are the main responsible for the drop F1 is suffering both in TV audience and in track attendance, what also causes some venues to desist from hosting a gp like Germany, France, etc. and all that is directly related to current aero rules that causes lack of competitiveness
Yet, people were with masses in Grandstands when a team dominated and lapped the whole field on a regular basis.
F1 has never been as close as it is now, and it never has been as competitive either(apart from a few odd years). Your complaint about domination is not much of a complaint. It's nothing more than a complaint about the natural order of things, you want it to change? Good luck reinventing society as a whole.
You see it everywhere, one team, one group of people excells above the rest, and when perspective changes, so does another. It goes on and on and on, and it is impossible to stop that, or to prevent that. Unless you of course want to ban the dominant team just because.
What I mean is current aero rules are the biggest problem current F1 suffer (apart from Bernie), so the massive risk is continue with same direction, not promoting a massive change. I don´t see any future for F1 in the medium to long term if things continue this route
No. Tim is right on this. You are just promoting a massive change just because a few people don't like something. You've got absolutely no guarantee of success for an significant change in appearance as a whole. Plus, the same complaining people will find something new to complain of, because that's what they do.
So in the end, you've got something new, something that people who were okay with the old setting might not like at all, just to keep a group of people that complain, and afterwards still complain, happy.
