LOL, check your stats at the Hungaroring, attendance was down. I hear that about Ferrari but all the teams except AMG seem to have severe issues with the rule changes. That's the nature of any sport, when your on top things look pretty good. Also Force India has been a great team given their limited budgets but that's the rub, in an effort to cut costs the FIA has created artificial areas where innovation has remained stagnant and it takes money to race. I just hope they don't get as daft as IndaCar with the same cars/chassis but no matter we'll see what happens and right now F1 is in trouble, even though the coverage analysts try to make it seem different. I was going to go to Monza this year and the USGP at COTA. I've scratched those off my list because Hockenheim was my first F1 race attendance in this new formula and I'm sorry it wasn't great, it was mediocre. If I'm going to spend lots of money going to a motor sports event I want to see the teams being able to race as hard as they can. I want the experience, not just part of it. The sights, the sounds are all part of F1 and limiting fuel rates, getting rid of refueling and putting artificial excitement into it is killing it as a spectator sport. Shit, if Bernie has to provide Lions in the pit area to attack the F1 mechanics, then so beit! I wanna see how fast Vijay can run. Shit Put Flavio, that cheating SOB, in a monkey suit and make him dance on the grid!
