    Yo

    Replace DRS zones with a Turbo Boost Button. Both drivers then at least have a choice as to where and when to deploy.

    If by overtaking you mean passing cars while they’re on pit-in/-out laps and passing stationary cars in the pits for silly rules-mandated tire changes. There’s plenty of that, for sure. ;)

    Leave them with 210 Kg of fuel, and let them expend it any way they see fit.

    {They will still be tire limited on most circuits.}

    Its only boring because we have no real close fights up front between MV n CL, MV and LH have spoilt us the last few years.
    The rules of engagement has changed this year, there has been specific rules and guidelines for the drivers.
    So nothing for fans to talk and moan about. Throw in 9 retirements between the top two teams and the fact MV + CL have had issues in 4 of the 9 races, its left some races with a some what predictable out come.

    The main thing for me is the two “Protagonists” this year don’t have any perceived animosity (yet) so that filters down to the fans. You aren’t seeing pages and pages of fans arguing who is right/wrong, who’s better, etc.

    need merc closer to RedBull for some juicy MV LH battles which never failed to entertain.

    An absolutely fantastic race, the most exciting I've seen in years. Greatly relieved to hear that Zhou is OK.

    Albon is still in the hospital but he's good and doing okay.

    Weird that Zhou's crash looked way more severe than Albon and Zhou is out and about after the race.

    I imagine that both drivers will be pretty sore, I wonder if they will be able to race in Austria?

    I'm sure they will. I didn't see any bruising on Albon. He just had an I.V.with a hospital gown lying in bed. He looks cognizant.

    The action on the track was certainly not boring this afternnon.

    The gossips are however boring as always.

    He was released around an hour ago. He's doing well.

    Albon'***** into the wall was really hard.

    The entire Williams team should have red hair for the next race. It would be a great show of support--and it would be fun.
