ridiculous. the biggest concerns of F1 racing are costs, competitiveness, safety, and the growth of the US market. today’s race was a compromise of all of it (except maybe cost). sure if michelin teams had been allowed new rubber and then completely dominated bridgestone teams, then maybe you could complain about unfairness, but better that than lack of safety. the driver’s championship standings weren’t effected THAT much, but seriously 1-3 failures and if schumi wins some more, then it’s a big deal. i don’t understand what the problem would be with adding the chicane or allowing the new rubber.
