Billy_Hunt should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Something I just read:-
Quote:
Whitmarsh told Motoring News: “I don’t think there’s any evidence that traction control detracts from the show.

“Even with all these driver aids in 1993, Ayrton Senna still looked much better than his team-mate and the rest of the field.

“Even at Donington in the wet, which was one of the better examples of where the system should have evened out the field he managed to overtake four cars in a single lap.”

But Berger said he had mixed feelings about traction control’s return.

He said: “I have two hearts. On the driving side, I remember when we had traction control it took away some areas where a good driver can do something better than a not-so-good driver – by controlling the throttle himself, or using a bit of nice power oversteer.

“But from the challenge of an engine manufacturer specialising in electronics we would love to work on this area.

“What’s most important is to be sure that the FIA is able to check that everybody is using the same car.”
Perhaps it's not going to be so bad
