This is for the fans of Formula 1 that have seen the proposals fro the new CDG (Centraline Downwash Generating) Wing. Personaly I think its really ugly and will make the racing considerably worse.

What do you lot think?

Last year with that whole one set of tires during the race. I am not surprised anymore with any new rule after that one (unless its no engines...that would be something).

Try watching the bikes in the Moto GPs.

Real racing by vehicles that look something like the ones you can actually buy!

If you want a procession, go to a parade!

Did watch the first few laps of the Japanese GP but someone overtook and I couldn't stand the excitement.

I lost interest when Damon retired

To be honest I find the touring cars just as exciting sometimes

I'm beginning to lose interest in Formula 1 because they keep changing the rules all the time.
