Can you tell me why a race witnessed by a trackside audience of dozens should award double over a packed Silverstone or Monza?
Can you ask the teams and the FIA those questions?

I certainly wouldn't have come up with that suggestion myself, but the teams and the FIA must have their reasons for it, although they are a bit thick.
