People are saying now then that the issue is that Formula One cars can't overtake at the current speeds.
So is it a spectator's issue, or is it a safety issue?
I find it hard to imagine that carbonfibre suspension parts would fatigue so suddenly at something like 6g - and certain accidents, especially in CART, have been known to result in up to 40g for the briefest of moments. Luciano Burti's Spa crash is a case in point.
Safety-wise I still don't think F1 is dangerously fast, but from a competition perspective, perhaps they should be looking at reducing the demand on aerodynamics/tyres?
