Trouble is no matter how wide a track is,
they still can't overtake on many because of the marbles from the tyres wrecks the off line drive.
We need much much harder tyres that don't wear that bad to assist in overtaking manoeuvres.

As also stated under the new Medal System Massa would be the current World Champion as he won more races.
Crazy!

As mentioned in the BBC article,

This season, McLaren's Hamilton won one less race than Ferrari's Felipe Massa - but only because the Brazilian was controversially handed victory in Belgium after the Englishman, who had won on the road, was given a penalty.

Can you imagine the uproar that would occur if that kind of penalty happens next year, and causes the title to be decided by this manner.

God I gave up with F1 years ago when it became a boring follow the leader procession, I think the best thing F1 could do is get rid of the poison pixie and the rest of his cronies and get someone in who has the balls to shake things up and get some action back into it. I miss the days of Senna, Mansell, Prost et al.

F1? No thanks, give me a the BTCC to watch any day of the week for good, THRILLING entertainment, where no one can say what will happen!
