Except, that usually ended with a climax and F1 doesn't.

I still wonder why they didn't changed the free practices to become "more exciting and good to TV"

Never. Never Forget. And I'll raise??? you one. My first digital porn experience was the Samantha Fox Strip Poker game for the Commodore 64. Ohh yeah. Pixelated nothingness.

But even worse was when you waited 25 minutes to download what you thought was going to be an awesome thumb nail sized porno pic only to find out that it was either the lamest photo ever or incorrectly labeled and something completely different......This is the state of modern F1.

As if Toto will do the right thing. He is a shrude businessman.

Oh, and hasn't he learned that the teams vote don't really count? So, he's just talks shit as usual.

Apparently Todt say to Toto said they'll go back to the 2015 system once everyone realizes that the current system is crap. I'd say I don't know who hasn't realized that yet but I guess we'll see.

That's not so bad compared to what I went through. I spend a full day to download the blockbuster called Men in Black. Once the download was finished and I hit play, I quickly realized that this was not the Men in Black starring Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones but rather Men in Black Men, starring Dick Smith and Tommy Lee Bones.

Good times. Good times...

Can we at least keep it related to F1? Like midget porn starring Jean Todt?

Somebody should make a comedy about f1. Inseperable from a documentary about g1.

Fucking idiots.

Fans don't want it. If it is the promoters demand then tell them to fuck off but I doubt that's true.

I think the FIA & NASCAR (and sometimes IndyCar too) are trying to competing with each other on making the stupidest rules and formats at this rate

To be honest, I thought the teams voted unanimously against it. It was rather some other idiots and now as Horner says it, promoters and the FIA are the evils in this case.

I just don't understand that the FIA can't think a bit logically for one second. This shit was introduced out of nowhere and now, the entire world, drivers and team bosses included, watches this spectacle how it miserably fails 2x. And the easiest solution just go back is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo far away that they're making fools of themselves until forever.

I also don't get it why the race promoters are against it and why they have actually a say in the regulations. Imagine soccer stadiums decide on soccer rules.

What does it solve to go back? It wouldn't change anything. Nada. That is the only thing they are doing right.

And about soccer, bad anology, because most teams are the owners of the stadiums.....

In the end, too many people have a disproportianate say in things, especially Bernie or the teams.

Always makes me laugh when the simplest solution is to go back to the old way of doing things but powers that be won't, it seems 'it's not an option' roughly translates to 'I don't want to admit I was wrong' in this modern world, you know, new is always better, durrrr....

So the current one is better than the old one? They're not doing anything right because they can't agree on anything either and by doing so, everyone's stuck with the crap we have now.

I'm calling bullshit on the promoter's thing. So every circuit got together, formed a union, came up with a unified proposal and issued it at the last minute possible to the FIA demanding change?

The reasoning for the change has taken over a month from the FIA to tell us, even after the backlash weeks ago? That reasoning is smeared with horse shit all over it.

edit
----------------------------------

"There's an unwillingness from the promoter and the FIA to go back to 2015," Red Bull team principal Christian Horner said.

There it is. The promoter, not promoter's which implies the circuits. So CVC/FOM and Bernie are pushing for it.
