F1 » Qualifying tyres answer to Q3 absences?

Qualifying Q1 hard tyres all teams,MANDATORY.Qualifying Q2 soft tyres all teams,MANDATORY.Aggregate times to prepare PRELIM START list. Fresh softs for TOP 10 runners to determine POLE and subsequent finishes. These tyres to be returned to Pirelli,all 10 finishers to WEIGH-IN for checks. Option to start on either used HARD or SOFT tyre. This gives everyone an equal chance/punishment.

F1 » 'No-one will ever be forgiven' for going to Bahrain

@taipan,richard et al, I haven't often been in agreement with you but your support for this race is refreshing. Now to the politics of the situation. Bahrain is mainly an oil connected phenominum supported by all the major countries who drill,refine and market their lifeblood,oil.If there was really such concern why wouldn't these countries put pressure directly on the kingdom by embargoing the oil,not using their docking facilities and restricting all trade. Does Cuba come to mind? F1 should not attempt to or be involved in the politics of the situation. Would all of you critics agree to not to fill your vehicles with oil or petrol/gas from any of the companies doing business here,they are easy to find.Also boycott all plastics etc, anything to help. F1 shouldn't bear the burden alone.
