Suggestions for making Formula 1 more fun

Please submit your ideas by comment, so far...

• Bring back refuelling
• Change the tyres again
• 1 in every 200 tyres is pre-punctured
• Release an actual red bull on to the track
• The Safety Car Randomiser - a computer-generated lottery triggers a safety car situation

German GP - "That was a tough one. They gave me a run for the money"

Ja

Starting grid photos - it's nice to reflect on those start-of-the-school-year haircuts
Split strategies
Webber's wingcam, mounted sideways - more of it please and more Bottas helmet cam too
Rollercoaster between grandstands
Old School action - an engine blow-out, Alonso hitching a lift back on a scooter
Diplomacy - "A good result for the team" - Grosjean

Nein

Double piano national anthem - full of gravitas
Hamilton's start
Massa - when did he last finish race?  Why did he spin off?  Wasn't Smedley furious?
Pit lane disasters
Team orders - "Kimi is stronger than you.   Kimi is stronger than you"
The drawing of a watch on Hamilton's gloves
Bianchi forgetting to put the handbreak on
Vettel's never won in July before - we are scraping the barrell for stats now
Williams wheelgun/nut problems

GB GP - "Great job, great job, excellent job"

Best of British

Thrilling last laps - following the safety car brought out to clear Vettel's poorly parked car, there was some very determined driving (as Webber got the most benefit from this, I see a conspiracy in the offing)
Lotus drivers being allowed to race each other
Massa's start - where did he pull that from or does Smedley operate him via remote control now?
Vettel's loss of drive - anyone else and we wouldn't have enjoyed it
Force India - finally getting the hang of pit stops
Vettel's helmet - decorated with all the members of the team
90s style racing - when waiting for your driver to suffer some form of catastrophe was the norm
Webber and Alonso refer to Vettel as "Michael"

Damp Squib

Chilton - apparently he is no stranger to Silverstone, which will stand him in good stead when he is selling programmes next year
Tyre failures - potentially awful
Pit lane commentary - we are falling out of love.  "Box box tomato three clicks left"
Alonso's evil villain beard
Home grand prixs - Roberg persisted in calling Silverstone Mercedes' home race, even though they are German.  The BBC kept referring to Red Bull as being based in Milton Keynes, even though they are Austrian.  Perhaps your nationality should be based on where you are based.  Wacky.
Sour grapes - "We all made it easy for him" - Hamilton on Rosberg
