Terrible ‘race’.
No actual battles until the final 6-7 laps.
Teams are now in a situation where there’s no point racing until the final laps, as it just does damage to their race.
I can’t remember the last time I saw so many non-battles. Drivers are no longer making any attempt to defend a position.
I have to do a complete u-turn on my philosophy. I gave the tyres a chance, and i’m all for aggressive strategies, but it’s officially killed the idea of an on-track battle.
Let’s please be sensible with DRS, too. Why stick it on a 1km long straight?! Zero common sense being applied. Let’s create another overtaking spot, surely.
I say we go back to last year’s tyres and be super aggressive with the compound choice (ie. using softs/super softs for 90% of the remaining races), and let’s be sensible about DRS placement.
I honestly could have done without 48 of those laps today, and that’s really sad.
