F1 » What do you think of F1's penalties and controversies?

It's destroying Formula One.

Why bother having races if the stewards and FIA are going to alter the results. F1 is worse than NASCAR for rules and penalties

In order to save costs in Formula 1 don't actually bother to run any races, just let the FIA decide at the end of the season who the is the champion. It is becoming increasingly obvious that some teams and drivers are favoured over others and the season's final outcome is steadily manipulated throughout the year

Its going to be over another week befor we know the final results for Australia and Malaysia so whats the use in watching the race

I'm on the verge of giving up, having followed F1 for over 20 years. These penalties are sucking the life from the sport.

Also, Bernie wanted his medal system to improve the racing. How can they want this, on the one hand, yet penalise drivers (Vettel notably) when they do actually race, and get involved in what can only be described as a racing incident? F1 needs a complete shake-up of the stewards, the system used to implement penalties, and the time it takes to do this.

All the time Lewis Hamilton is in F1 he will get this (read into this how you feel fit!) he cannot win with the powers to be with an interest in Ferrari waiting on the sidelines,watching his every move..
This is a tragic shame and not good for the sport,he is a unique driver that does not to be treated like this.
Come on,leave him alone!!

F1? FARCE 1

I'm going to Valencia today for some proper grown-up racing at the World Superbikes.

I've just cancelled down all my recording settings for this weekend's Malaysia Farce1 because it's just not worth wasting the electricity.

I think we should have an X-Factor style phone in at the end of the season so we can vote who wins.

Special prizes for 'most technical appeals in a single season', 'nicest team who were subsequently found out to be breaking the rules', 'nicest use of red paint on a GP car', 'most bestest driver, initt'

At this rate all the results will end up provisional all year so it makes perfect sense. No, really.

It's become farcical, they want drivers to actually race like in the good old days rather than have races decided in pitlane then they penalise every move they make. Just get the drivers to race on the Playstation and let the stewards decide the outcome at the end, that way there is no risk of injuries and it keeps the costs down.
It's pathetic but until the teams get together and breakaway it will continue.

What is the point of racing from 18th to the points if the FIAsco are going to mug you after the event!
Max and the FIAsco are low life scum who have ruined the racing with no testingn and their silly new rules!
