 Keep the great ideas coming Max |
I thought the medal idea was from Bernie instead....
however....Button might still be crown with WDC near the end of European races since he's building a large gap between him and Vettel / Barrichello.....
26 pts between button and barrichello and 32 pts between button and vettel.....
as discussed in March before....this is a silly concept....it works in one single race like the Olympics 4x100 final.....won't work if the track and field event is going to be held 17 times around the world....
the intention was good tho...to FORCE the drivers to push himself and the car and aim for WIN....not to settle for anything lower....but....F1 is also about tacticts and strategy....
when you race hard enough to gain a LOT of points in the beginning of the season....they DESERVE to be a bit relax in the final couple races and enjoy their fruit they planted earlier in the season.....
