In recent years, Formula 1 has started going in a different direction, one that has alienated old fans, whilst also bringing in a lot of new ones. The sport’s image is rapidly changing, and upper management has brought in increasingly controversial policy decisions. Anyone who follows me on Twitter will know full well that I enjoy a good rant, and when it comes to modern Formula 1, there is a lot to rant about. Here, I want to lay my cards on the table, and outline how I would change Formula 1 if I had the power, i.e., as FIA President. We’re talking everything from the calendar to technical regulations, safety standards, and even broadcasting and hospitality. No stone will be left unturned, and so here, allow me to declare my manifesto for a vision of Formula 1 that remains at the forefront of progress and innovation, while also being deeply in touch with its heritage and past.

No budget as stated by other comments will be abused but bring in the ideas ,but they have to be presented to all the other teams at the end of the season. Otherwise the likes of Audi will bring in 4WD diesel cars like before etc. Honestly the coolest idea was the 13th team for F2 champions etc. Subscribed,liked and shared. Thank you.

    I think at least part of the motivation is that the cost-cap is something of a double-edged sword, particularly in combination with the current technical regulations. Rather than create closer championships, we're seeing teams have to push back their potential gains to next season because to try and implement this season would violate the cost-cap.

It's much better than spending 400 million to build potential upgrades you might not use. The uprising of McLaren and Aston Martin proves that budget cap works. It would've been brilliant if Red Bull had done their job a little less well. The vibe would be different if Hamilton, Leclerc and Alonso had won a race this season instead of 2nd places.

    Worse - it restricts the sport to big manufacturers.....who have no reason to be in there anymore by scrapping any hybrid systems. You might as well institute a cost cap at this point since every road car manufacturer is making statements about ceasing development of combustion engines. He brings up the 70s bit forgets that most of the teams back then had barely any support from factory teams while every team on the grid wants to be paired up with a road car factory these days to develop the powertrain. Despite making their own road cars, there are reasons why McLaren wanted to aprtner up with Honda again. Or why Red Bull is partnering with Ford. But overall, this was just one big nothingburger of a manifesto - basically every internet talking point from the past 10 years. Like come on, he wants to bring back the tire war as if the FIA themselves aren't the ones demanding shitty tires? Anyone who actually takes a look back and remembers the 2005 "One set of tires for the whole race" thing wasn't from the manufacturers, that was the FIA.

    One thing about Adelaide: The old F1 layout doesn't exist anymore, they built a different road alignment there. The role of FIA president gives you a lot of powers, but I don't think you get city planning powers in Adelaide, so it's gonna be pretty hard to bring that layout back. And the shortened version other racing series use to this day is shorter than Monaco, so that might not be the best track for F1 either.

Or if you overtake a car with a mechanical failure on the side of the track that’s also counted as an overtake. As wheel to wheel action goes, I don’t see a reasonable increase in the action on track. I enjoy F1 either way, but I don’t think they’ve made such a difference. Also overtakes are not everything, as the 2005 San Marino GP is remembered by the exact opposite: The lack of an overtake (Schumacher couldn’t overtake Alonso)

    Honestly, I think scrapping the cost cap is a bad idea. It will just result in big teams trowing money at everything and dominating. If there is one thing that works currently, its the cost cap giving smaller teams a chance to catch up. It also promotes having good ideas and gambling on unconventional stuff for small teams because getting it right means a larger advantage. I also think that removing DRS wouldn‘t work as developing cars that can‘t be followed would be a top priority with that much development freedom.

    There's little benefit in a more lineair calendar as teams, their vehicles, materials, staff, all fly back every three weeks to a month to their European home base. So, as long as the European races are concentrated together (which they already are) the question is, if it makes sense to fly from one point in the world to another via your European home base. Flying from Melbourne, with a turnover in Britain before flying to somewhere in America, all of a sudden doesn't sound that unlogical anymore.

    In the broader historical view, Monaco and Indy being on the same day is a thing that happens often but not always. In fact, not only has Monaco's date fluctuated quite a bit, but even the Indy 500 was not specifically pegged to the Sunday adjacent to the last Monday in May until 1974 (for many years it was on May 30, the "original" Memorial Day, regardless of the day. When Memorial Day became a Monday holiday, it first moved to the Saturday of the three-day weekend, then to the Monday, and finally in 1974 to the Sunday).

    As a South African who dreams of having a Grand-Prix at home, it PAINED me to admit how correct you were about my country's situation 🤣 but anyway. You have a very good base of rules here but I would like to change/add a couple of things: 1) Scrapping the cost-cap isn't a good idea because it makes what is already an expensive sport to teams and manufacturers unappetising once again. Also I feel opening the aero regulations in hopes to encourage innovation would only be aided by the cost cap. Forcing teams to find competitive solutions without breaking the bank. This I feel will bring back (for techy fans) the interest in genius designers like a Colin Chapman, John Barnard etc. However like the WEC, introduce a minimum/maximum drag co-efficient to not destroy the raceability of cars throwing excessive amounts of aero on the cars. 2) I get that everyone is in love with screaming V10s but unless a team really wants to run them, it shouldn't be the compulsory engine format. I propose further encouraging innovation in engine design as well. I suggest taking notes from F1 in the 60s-70s and WSC/WEC. Opening regulations to whatever configuration teams wish to run but limiting engines based on displacement. I.e. having engines limited to 3 litre displacement on whatever configurations teams choose. Yes, even Hybrid components are allowed but MGU-H type components are banned to keep engines loud and exciting. Opening regulations on engine configurations will greatly improve attractiveness of F1 to manufacturers. Also will bring back the signature engine sounds typically associated with manufacturers. Imagine a symphonic-V12 Ferrari/Aston Martin, roaring Mercedes V8 and screaming Audi V10 at Monza. To enforce and maintain loud engines, a loudness standard must be maintained where a minimum rating of 120dB and maximum of 140dB at max rpm is allowed to protect the aural health of mechanics/engineers which is taken for granted from behind the TV screens. (I'm an audio-engineer by trade and am quite passionate about this) P.S. V10s were already within this range of loudness. 3) I love the idea of bringing back the tyre war and 3 choices of wet weather tyres, I would like to add 1 thing. In the style of pure-qualifying set-ups from the 80s, introduce a qualifying ONLY tire. Ultra grip but very short lifespan of 2 laps at full steam. This would bring back a sense of One-Shot Quali and would free-up tire strategies on Sunday as teams will have more sets of soft compound tires available, and limit teams to four sets per car of the Quali tire per quali session (4 sets for Q1, 4 sets for Q2 etc.), bringing more jeopardy and drama to qualifying. Because not only will teams be concerned with session-time, managing traffic, but also with tire-life in quali. For fans it will be even more exciting as we get to see F1 cars around a track at peak grip which has always been something incredible in the sport's history. These Quali tires can also reward the drivers whose driving styles are better at preserving tires whilst at the limit, as they could find ways to get more laps out of the tires while rivals who don't posess this skill lose time and track position changing tires. (As a Leclerc and Ferrari fan I'm setting myself up for pain and heartbreak🤣) 4) I would like to take a suggestion from Oscar Piastri and delete Quali lap-times from drivers who cause red flags to prevent Monaco Red flag pole position type incidents (Leclerc 2021). 5) Instead of getting rid of Sprint races and putting F1 drivers in old F1 cars for a race (which may prove more expensive than it's worth), I suggest after the Friday Practice session whilst drivers are warmed up, throw them in SAFE cars resembling Formula Ford for a 20 lap sprint race (yes. It is 20 laps at every track) and make it count for championship points, to give drivers the incentive to want to compete. This will be exciting to watch and also encourage Friday viewership of F1 more than what it is now. Grid position of this race will be decided by a lucky draw of numbers. I think this was done in the road racing days of the Targa Florio and Mille Miglia? The order in which drivers draw numbers is decided by championship position after the previous race.

I'd suggest that if a celebrity wants to be part of the grid, they can apply for it but will have to shoot a light hearted version of a grill the grid episode with easier questions. That way you make sure that the celebrities have to interact with the content of the sport and not just stand in front of an F1 car for their Instagram.

    Just ten minutes in and already I can tell that this isn't so much of an attempt to fix things as to design your own dream Formula One series. You remove the cost cap which would make only big manufacturers able to really compete in F1, but then remove hybrid engines and return to old V10 engines, essentially removing the main reason so many manufacturers are trying to join F1 nowadays. The US races are removed not because they produce bad racing or are not properly designed for F1, but "because they are cringe" (which immediately tell me it was removed due to your own personal opinion, not due to facts). When I saw the video, I was excited because I thought that I would finally get to see a realistic take on "fixing" F1 that doesn't just devolve into the usual "Bring back V10s! Just European races!" etc. After all, your videos are so well researched and you know so much F1 history, so if any KZreadr would be able to bring good, realistic changes to F1, it would be you. And yet, ten minutes in and its pretty much all it was. The only good ideas you brought forward are the change of the order of the races to limit travel time (important especially when F1 is trying to be carbon neutral, though unfortunately unrealistic due to all the scheduling restrictions races have) and the removal of races from countries committing human rights abuse. Everything else is just nostalgia wanking.

I always found this "traditionalism" for a lack of a better word, extremely ironic and contradictory to the spirit of F1 sport which is in essence based on innovation and looking ahead to the future and cutting edge technology. People like to cry about the V6, but if you took an engineer from the 70'sand told them that one day we could pull 1000bhp from a 1.6L engine, they would be pleasantly surprised and fascinated.

    So basically another European crying for a mor eurocentric F1 😂. Removing the whole middle eastern countries under the excuse of the absence of human rights when the sports itself was founded by European countries in the middle of colonial wars and their astrocities is beyond ironic. The US is by far the biggest waring country in recent times and you have no problem giving them a race. I know a lot of Europeans hate to hear that, but F1 is an international sport. It is called the World Championship for a reason. And that argument of favoring countries with motorsport history is ludicrous. How would you want for new countries to develop the so called "history" if you dont allow them to start at some point? Also, see how all the "permanent" curcuits are in Europe? Thank you for proving my point. To be clear, I dont think this youtuber is nefarious or has bad intentions. He is just so biased he doesn't even realize the absurdity of what he is asking for. Also, I do agree that 4 Middle-Eastern Grand Prix is too much, but not for the same reason. My reason is since the sport is a World sport, having 4 countries from the same small region is too much. This also goes for Europe. Having a small continent hosting half of the calender takes all credibility from calling it a World Chamlionship. The Middle-East should keep 1 or 2 races and rotate regularly. Just the same for Europe. They should keep around 5 and rotate. I know that some Europeans would find this egregious, but try to remove your bias tainted glasses for a second and you will see it makes total sense.

Without the cost cap I think we will have more 2022 & 2023 red bulls as there is a right way to build a car and over the years some teams have come very close to the perfect one. plus, with no cost cap, RB/Merc/Ferrari throw a billion euro at a car while the rest of the teams start protesting that you cut the races the sponsors with the most money want on the calendar.

    I think the cost cap is a good idea and should be kept, especially when the technical regulations are wide open for all teams to experiment to create their ideal machine. Without a cap, you can expect big teams like Mercedes, Ferrari, and Red Bull to just pour all their resources to slap everything and the kitchen sink in a single machine, which would allow them to monopolize the championship every season. by keeping the cap tight, this will force teams to adopt certain systems, and you can end up with a grid with machines that are all unique enough to stand out. As for engines, just keep the engine types open. If a team can do well in a V6, let them. Hell, if a backmarker is struggling financially and can only afford to run a 4-cylinder, let them. This may also open more engine suppliers, and create a sort of "engine war." And if we do end up allowing NA and turbo engines to share the grid, we may need to revive the Jim Clark and Colin Chapman trophies for winning drivers/teams that run on NA engines.

    You've got around 500 comments about cost cap already so I won't delve into that. I'll center around the calendar, but there are a few things I'd add: replace DRS with a push to pass system similar to what is used on indycar and superformula. Similar to Indy too, if you cause a red in a qualy session, you get all times stripped and become unable to resume that session, so if you cause a red in Q2 you'll start last of those who made it there. We don't need more rain tyres, the problem with the current ones is that they move too much water, making visibility difficult. Maybe the only thing not F1 worth mentioning, every team in F3 needs to have women driving in at least 80% of the GPs. Now onto my main part: -16 to 20 races means 20 most of the time, so I'd just shorten it to 20 unless cancellations -Limiting street circuits would make racing in countries like Germany, Denmark and Australia (despite what it looks like, Albert Park IS a street circuit) more difficult -What does a strong moto racing heritage and culture even mean? Does having a track in the calendar for decades but never producing talent to race in it count? If no then places like Hungary don't count. Can it be any kind of moto racing? Then we need to go to Sweden. Also, heritage is something that can be built out of nothing, look at Turkey. It had nothing to do with F1 20 years ago, but now, with less than 10 GPs ever raced there, everyone would kill their offspring to have it race there. -I think we NEED a race at Motorland Aragon, not only because that place kicks ass, but also because Montmelo is a much better circuit for testing than for racing -It is physically impossible to revive Adelaide, some of the streets used don't exist anymore -Everybody would love for a Formula One race in Malaysia... except for Malaysians themselves. Let them stick to MotoGP. While that spot could be used for tracks like Buriram or Mandalika (if it ever wants grade 1 status), I believe the result would be the same regardless. The calendar would need to be moved forward to allow a race at idk, Korea? -The Nurburgring doesn't have the money to host a GP (in fact, I don't think any track there does). That being said, I'd love to see racing back in Germany, even if it's an extension of Tempelhof -All tracks in France suck, I'd update the Bugatti circuit in Le Mans and see how that turns out. Otherwise, I guess we'll have a street race around Disneyland? -Now that I think about it, because of the large landmass and population of the US, I wouldn't mind having a second race there, be it at Road America, Las Vegas or Indianapolis -The rightful place of the season finale is Suzuka, don't let them lie to you. But, for the sake of completelly avoiding typhoon season and for the sake of carbon neutrality, I'll allow it -No such thing as places with heritage status. All those places missed seasons because of one thing or another, what would you do if Indy comes back to the calendar, grant it to it too? What about places that, albeit not from day one, have been in F1 for countless editions now, like Montreal or the Hungaroring? -Even if the track came back, please don't use the forest section, it was removed not only because it broke down engines, but because it sucked -Foro Sol is not stupid. Maybe the banking can come back in the future with a full track renovation, but the atmosphere you get there doesn't happen anywhere else on the calendar -While most of what you said about Spa is agreeable, it is still necessary to do something, even if it is "let's not race there in rain"

    I mainly agreed with parts of this video, but I still have some opinions. 1. Most manufacturers are unlikely to make a V10 engine, so I think a V8 engine might be a better choice, not just can bring more manufacturers, but also be easier to make fine-tune. 2. Speaking of tyre suppliers, I want to see far more manufacturers (like Goodyear, Dunlop, Michelin, Hankook & Continental) like in the early days. 3. In Q3 of Monaco, I want to see a one-shot format (at least to make crashes on purpose less likely to happen). 4. Prize allocation should be equal for every team. 5. I 100% disagree about scrapping the cost cap, but I think the currently cost cap is also not much great, my suggestion is to exclude the cost of car damage, tyres, transport & fuel. 6. I want to see some more in-depth stats on the world feed (such as braking input that is not just on-off, thermal camera & current pace), and less AWS PREDICTION! 7. Adelaide (GP layout) doesn't exist anymore, so I think The Bend Motorsport (still FIA Grade 2) might be a great option for rotating with Albert Park.

Along with the 2 engine configurations you mentioned, testing added for science "projects": sustainable 4 cylinder 500bhp engines that can be transfered to regular cars; technology flows from F1 to street cars again. I would say add another tire manufacturer, as that will really increase the road car tire development side, like it used to. Over all, love your "Benevolent Dictatorship", and will vote that direction when given the chance.

With the chassis development outsourced like Haas do at the moment with Dallara. As for the other two slots, I agree, welcome Andretti in with open arms, even more so if they can bring GM/Cadillac on board. And the 12th team? well if Hitech can prove they can be financially viable, I think they can be a decent option as a new customer team

    Great video as always Peter. Always living up to your expectations. Impatiently waiting for the next one. You bring a lot of interesting ideas, I’m specially in favour of opening the regulations to maximise creativity. Not sure if it’d work but I’m sure it’s worth the try. And also in favour of adding more teams, as there’s more action and more grid slots for new drivers. Giving how many videos surrounding the points system you made, I’m surprised the only change was 1 point for pole position. With the grid opening up for 13 teams, it’ll be harder to make it into the points, so I’d consider changing the points system to the top 12 instead of the top 10. I think Indycar’s system is also quite interesting, as finishing 13th is better than finishing 14th in a realistic way, and drivers would always have the incentive of making a move and not just stay there without giving an f. In my opinion, multiple tyre suppliers wouldn’t make any good to the sport. It’s one element that drivers can’t control and teams can’t change in the whole season. There’s been seasons where the tyre distributor was more important than any talent that a driver had, and I think that’s not where the sport should go. I would stick to one supplier, in my opinion.

    Ok hear me out: Tech regs- I dont agree with your cost cap removal, due to the spread it would recreate, but I do approve of more technical ingenuity. Teams should have the 1.5L turbo or the 3.0L NA rule, along with the 500kg minimum weight, but may I suggest that teams also have to create their own tires. This would mean all manufacturers would have to choose between where they put their resources, whether it be weight, power, or grip. I also think the engines should not HAVE to be v10s, but rather any format that manufacturers please. It would also be cool to get rid of the 20k rpm limit (seems unlikely that someone would bypass that, but who knows 😉) Calendar-While I agree that for most countries 1 GP is enough, the US is huge. So how about instead of axing miami and vegas, you replace them with two tracks that have f1 history and are iconic venues: Watkins Glen and Long Beach. (Assuming they both go grade 1 for the occasion, but just assume the best) Yhe rest I agree with.

    My proposals would be the following: -Every new track has to have hosted a race before and attracted a certain number of fans, so no new street circuits unless they mean racing seriously. - Also every new country needs to have had an F1 driver in the last 10 years. - DRS will work like Push to Pass, so you can use it to defend as well. - Qualifying will stay largely the same, but pole is decided in a one lap shootout. - the pre-race Grids will be eliminated, and drivers will drive to the formation lap from the pits. - Not a F1 thing perse, but you need a super licence point to take part in F2. - Front and rear wings are produced by third parties after FIA's designs, so unwanted dirty air is eliminated ( different non spec versions will be available). - Refuelling will be allowed, but the available quantity of fuel will be reduced. - And lastly there will be a spirit of the regulations rule in the rules, so the FIA can close loopholes quickly

    I have some changes (you bet there's gonna be a part 2): 1. Less variation on the penalties. If you send them out of the race purposefully, you get disqualified, but if you just damage them purposefully while receiving noticeable damage (drivers can't claim they're damaged when they aren't, instead stewards consult lap times) you get a 10-second penalty, but if you aren't damaged, you get a 10-second-stop-and-go penalty. Not pitting should be a 20-second time penalty. 2. There has to be limited testing, wind tunnel and CFD work, and teams must not be allowed to collect data other than the amount of fuel in a car during practice, qualifying and the race. They can consult lap times and their drivers for more information (see Formula E for proof this works). 3. A few more regulations on car design to restrict elements of the car that increase turbulent air. 4. Teams should have Thursday afternoon and Friday morning for practice before qualifying Friday afternoon and sprints on Saturday. The Q3 qualifiers should their final positions after Q3 being reversed (i.e. pole position driver starts 10th), instead of having a sprint shootout, but the final position after Q3 is where all drivers start for the main race. This is so that rather than having a dominant driver like Verstappen waltz away from everyone else, he'll have to fight up the top 10 in sprints. Also, 1 point is awarded for 10th and 10 are awarded for 1st. 5. Only naturally aspirated carbon-neutral engines. They sound better than turbos and there shouldn't be 2 types of engines. 6. No F.I.A-run team. That's just too expensive. Instead, give a $15 million dollar bonus to teams that take rookies for the rookies' first year. You bet backmarkers will eat that up. 7. $150m cost cap, not including drivers, with it being adjusted for inflation and rounded every year. 8. At least $80m for last place, going up to $250m for first. I know that's a lot, but I don't care.

    Here comes part 2: 9. No non-championship race. There are a lot of problems with that. 10. For Spa: I thought of just making a mini barrier of softened tires about 35 meters away from the actual barrier. It wouldn't be able to come close to stopping a car, and thus wouldn't provide a chance for them to lose their lives early, but would slow the car down, increasing safety at Eau Rouge. 11. No yellow flags for qualifying. That would be highly unfair for drivers who hadn't completed a representative lap time yet. Instead, red flags pause qualifying. 12. Instead of being required to run a classic livery at every heritage race, they must do so at at least one. Otherwise, there won't be enough classic liveries left. Plus, they have to take off tobacco sponsorships. 13. No Nelson Piquet. Keep the bigot away from F1, championships be damned. 14. Change the schedule. This involves too much work for me, but you have to change some stuff.

    As a marshal from Germany, I will say your European calendar will most certainly run understaffed or with inexperienced marshals. You may not know, but it is at least a 4 day commitment traveling to and from each F1 event. Not that many marshals will have this many holiday to spare each month along with additional expenses. Since marshals need qualifications to even be considered for the event, you will quickly exhaust your experienced marshals if so many races are held in such a short time. Lastly, and you may not know this, FIA and FOM don't have a budget for marshals. Thus, it is up to the organizers to attract marshals to their events and let's just say there isn't a budget for that either. So to add to your list: budget for the marshals!

For those against 13 teams due to the clutter especially in turn 1, one can still restrict the number of participants in a race to 20. Thus make it still worth qualifying 20th.

    1. Qualifying The grid gets split into 2 groups, 1 driver from each team. Each group runs their own 10-13 driver qualifying. The bottom half of each group then has their own final qualifying. Finally the top half of each group has their own qualifying. We end up with 4 qualifying sessions with a maximum of 10-13 drivers in each thus limiting the problems with too many cars on the grid in usual Q1 and Q2 conditions. 2. Engines 1.5L at 4 bar is hugely superior to 3L at atmospheric, i would suggest 2 stroke turbos with direct injection. 3. Refuelling is back 70L maximum size tanks, no refuelling during red flag conditions. 4. Cars have a minimum weight (no fluids, no driver). The teams must provide balast to bring the driver+balast to a minimum of 100kg. (Full race gear at start of race) weigh over in race gear and you team will get you into fat camp pretty quick. Weigh under then the team has limited positions they can place the balast. 5. Like the european GP, change Malaysia to be a rotating GP. Malaysia, + Whoever else feels like it. (Veitnam, India, 2nd Aus Gp [Adelaide/Tailem Bend/whatever Sydney is trying], 2nd Japanese GP ,NZ) etc. 6. Helmets, with the FIA's permission a driver may run a special helmet outside of their 3 design limit. 7. The commercial rights holder is to not copyright strike external content creators if they comply with certain reasonable conditions (tone/length).

You create a situation in which is very difficult to understand where to draw the line.

For more than half of the grid to score points under the top 6 system considerably more than half of the grid had to retire, where as now if a single car retires more than half of the grid automatically get points. A fundamental difference! The points system itself definitely wasn't built around poor car reliability, the points system was built around the fact that out of a grid of however many cars only the very top finishers deserve points, otherwise points themselves are entirely pointless. The World Rally Championship used the same top 6 scoring system during its heyday and those were the tightest seasons the sport has ever had, and how many entries did an average World Rally have at the turn of the century? Regularly well over a hundred, all eligible for points, yet only the top 6 were worthy of them. Mick Schumacher, in all his mediocrity, netted 12 points in his career, did he deserve that many? Hell no! Under proper scoring he would have scored 1 point, which seems about fair for his efforts. Alpha Tauri netted 35 points as a team last season despite finishing in the top 6 only once. Did they deserve 35 points for their campaign? Absolutely not! Even Williams finished last season with some points in the bag, which is absolutely outrageous given their performance. The more points you award the less they are worth. The FIA nor Liberty Media would never admit this, but the real reason they pump out so many undeserved points nowadays is simply because it brings more money into the sport, it's easier to attain financial backing when a team has "scored points to prove their worth". It's a joke, like everything else about the sport.

The most consistent driver should win the title. That's why the 2003-2008 system was the best and made for F1s best modern seasons (except 2012). The old points system was stupid for F1 (not WRC) as it made the gap between the biggest teams and the smaller teams pretty big in the years when F1 got more and more reliable and was essentially outdated by the late 80s.

The winner should get 12 points under that system to preserve the difference between first and second, because it sure as shit can't be the same as between second and third. Once again, the grid would have to be well bigger than 20 cars for this system to ensure no undeserved points are being handed out. Also worth pointing out that the top 6 system used during the 90s' and early 00's did *not* "punish" anyone for performing, all points counted towards the championship, as they should. That is the points system all FIA sanctioned motorsport series should use, it's the only one with a solid structure, and it doesn't award points for simply finishing the race. What was before that is quite irrelevant, neither one of us would willingly sit through a race from the 70's or 80's, they're about as boring as today's races. The sport was at its very peak during the 90's and comfortably slipped into being a thing of the past by the late 00's, if we want to resurrect it that is the time period we need to be taking cues from. The bottom line is that points are there to be earned, not handed out like medals at the special olympics. They are *the only thing* that teams and drivers race for so make them worth something.

Take Monaco for instance, if you were to start 2nd on the grid, and you know that you've got a set-up that can lap the track quicker than your opponent in front, then it's very possible that jump starting and gaining the lead off the line can help you win the race regardless of the 10/15 second penalty you'd serve during your pitstop.

I have notes on my own: 1) In Domenicali's I would put someone with a bit of F1 experience but also from the outside: Mario (or his son Michael Andretti) if they don't make to F1, or Bobby Rahal. Ones who clearly know how to break the US market and to not jump the shark. 2) GP Rounds part 1: 22 races are alright too in my opinion. To the ones you proposed I would add a second US GP and a GP in Africa, maybe street races in Morocco or Egypt. I also would replace the Euro GP with the New Zealand round. 3) GP Rounds part 2: this is a very hot take but I think a good driver should be at worst decent at racing in Road Tracks, Street Circuits...and Ovals. With this premise I would rotate the two US races between COTA, Indianapolis, a G1-updated Laguna Seca, Long Beach or Nashville Street Course, Texas Motor Speedway and maybe Charlotte. For the same criteria I would rotate the German GP between Hockenheim, Nurburgring, a G1-updated Lausitzring oval or Tempelhof Airport track. There should be maximum two ovals per year, as they should be attractions but not a new trend (like J.M. Balestre tried in late 80s and early 90s). 4) superlicense: F2, Super Formula, Fornula E and Indycar* should be at the same level as main leagues behind F1. 40 pts to the winner 30 25 20 15 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 However, Two marquee races, the Indy 500 and the Le Mans 24hrs (maybe even the Daytona 500, his own 24hrs or the Nascar Playoff, the latter for balancing) should award point of their own as they are more aknowledged mainstreamwise than their own leagues. 10 SL pts to the winners all the way to the 10th placed, who gains only a single SL point. With this in mind there might be more experts drivers and less average rookies. If you're not a Verstappen or a Leclerc you should sharp your tools in another league before F1. 5) replace DRS with push-to-pass systerm, 180 seconds per race. 6) the FIA should be the one hunting for new teams and not the other way around. Instead of varoius processes it would be better contacting the single teams and see if they are worth or not. Also, both makers and famous privateers like Penske, Ganassi, TOM'S or even Brabham should be prioritiesed over new ventures.

    A well thought out plan. Not sure about scraping the cost cap , could kill some teams. One thing you missed was help for the tracks. The fee to hold a race must be dramatically decreased so that the circuit owners don't have to rely on government handouts or massive oil money. The problem for the circuts is made worse by your lowering of ticket prices, which is a good idea.along with moving the race is from PayTV to regular TV. The whole business model for holding a race is broken and but for oil money and government intervention, the sport would die. I used to be part of a group of about 30 people that would all meet at a local bar later in the day to discuss the race that day. This was started up back in 1981. After F1 moved to pay T, the numbers started to drop slowly over the years when finally the group just disbanded because no one was willing to pay a cost that kept going up. I know they claim the numbers of fans are up, but I don't know anyone who watches the races, if any now. I canceled my subscription over 5 years ago . I watch highlights on KZread for the clasic races, but that's about it. I couldn't really care less about the sport now. If it folded, it wouldn't bother me at all, and that is a sad commentary on the sport from someone who has been watching F1 and motor sport since 1976. Today I'm a big WEC fan .
