The answer is simple - there are too many rules.
Compulsory stops, fuel drops, working or not working in a car under a red flag, exceeding track limits in some places is ok but not in others. There was even confusion as to when the race starts. Just unbelievable.
What on earth would the casual TV viewer who makes up the bulk of the viewing audience make of all of this?
Schenken and co should do themselves a favour and review each rule and decide whether it adds to the sport.
