Here's a topical subject with the first F1 GP this weekend in Melbourne.

What does anyone think of the new rules. I think the one lap shoot out for pole will be great but Max's rule of no refuelling before the race is dumb. OK it's good for the amateur armchair strategist but it'll so confusing for most of us. It's a geeks nirvana to calculate the last 0.001 sec disadvantage of running extra fuel in qualifying against later pit stops, but lets have some real racing - next they will have a minimum mpg to meet!!

What's your opinion.
