Oh really, so you wqant this.

Fully Automatic cars thus no driver skill required in moving and stopping the car.
No slick tyres
Traction control
and tyre changes?
 
Right pSI, we respect your opinion but for christ sake respect ours too!
 
yummy words you put in my mouth can i have more?

WHAT I WANT IS CHANGES AND SLICKS LIKE IN JUST ABOUT EVERY OTHER RACE CAR SERIES ON EARTH.
 
Yeah and I want an F1 where the drivers actually make a difference and not the cars.

I respect you ideas, respect ours, we aint on the same wavelength like you ok? simple.
 
i can see most other things that have been proposed but i just cant see why we need to dissallow tire changes. i'm just trying to discuss it. it just seems odd and out of place to me. sorry i'm actually arguing about it.

Ok fair enoguh it just seemed you were not respecting my opinion, well we have had tyre changes for sooo long lol it was nice to have a change for this year.
 
i guess it was interesting. from a tech stand point it was. i think they should have kept it for another season as to not flip flop. i'm happy with changes though.

But then that would be soooooooo boring!! He would just romp away and hump the rest of the field into submission! (Nice little quote from dodgeball)

So what? If he has the car to do so he should be able to. But, since he had a flat-spot, he couldn’t.

Let me think – Spain, Monaco etc. Kimi won from pole on both of those races, yet they were both entertaining races (especially Monaco). If a team has put the effort in to make a car that can dominate the field like that then they deserve to win.
Honestly I think we will be going back to the 2004 season, just the same car winning over and over and over again and then at the end of the '06 season you guys will be going "How crappy was that season compared to last season!?" and i'll just be sitting there saying:

"I told you so..."

I’m sorry, have you watched a race before 2004? You know, 1 year before that (when they had basically the same rules) was the closest seasons of F1 I have ever seen.

It has to do with what sort of car the teams can produce within the regulations, not whether the cars can change tyres or not. If one team can make a car that is clearly better than it’s competition then it will win more races. If they produce cars that are pretty similar then there will be lots of different winners.

Not allowing tyre changes added an interesting element to the racing. But having tyre changes does too.
Overtaking msotly in the pit lane was because the pit stops too sooooo much longer when you had to change tyres

Ummm, no… the length of the pit stop is usually dependant on how much fuel is going into the car unless there is a problem changing one of the tyres.
