Re: F1 Thread
The new owners are looking for ways to improve the show - Hamilton & to an extent Danny Ric showed them a way yesterday. On tracks where lots of overtaking is possible make a car or two from the leading contenders (say all of the top ten once per season) start from the pit lane with no parc ferme ru...
