I am not sure, but I "think" this may even have been mentioned pages ago in this thread. But to the point of it being solved elsewhere...

1. Easy to do
2. Fair

Not to mention potentially a good thing for driver safety. You can easily find articles and interviews elsewhere in which drivers are trying to balance their fitness level. If they exercise too much (get too fit) they have weight issues.

Watch this interview with Jenson Button...

Ignore the Alonso/Button pairing tagline as its an interesting interview that covers a few different topics (testing, sounds of engines, halo concept, easy of driving the current cars, Alonso, etc.), but listen to what he says about what he has to do to manage his weight at about the 4:40 mark.
