For me, i'm assisted the Montreal Grand Prix about 6 year and when the F1 as only a ****** turbocharged 4 cylinder never i payed 550$ for a ticket. The fun is the incredible sound of the NA engine at 19000 RPM...at the end of the week end your ear blooding without plug.

These regs will envigorate the sport no end.

You need to realise how high profile F1 is and that they need to offer up innovation to be shown to improve efficiency.

I mean if you could have your road car be the same fun performance machine, yet it was 35% more efficient, you wouldn't say no would you - more time playing, less time stuck at a petrol station. Not to mention when a 'gallon o' gas' costs over $10 (as it does in UK), it makes a lot of sense to filter this down to road cars.
i'm glad too that i don't make the rules, because you have to change them every other season. thats hard work!
i'm all for innovation and efficiency and f1 is both of these, just make it in a V8.
