    what if they had some method to clean the track off-line, during the course of the race?

    so that if you go 2-wide through a corner, the outside car can still have grip. or to make passing on the inside line much more feasible.

    i think it would definitely improve the race.

    maybe just a compressed air stream that could be activated by corner marshals when the corner is clear?

    I'd like a Zamboni to constantly circle the track on the dirty line. Put the HRT/Lotus/Virgin livery on it and no will even notice.

    They do--its called a rule that bans tire changes except when the tire has already gone flat.
