The drivers are against pit stop changes, though Button thinks bringing back re-fueling might be the answer.

I thought we'd left the 'sprint - stop - sprint - stop - sprint' era well behind us, not to mention pit stop fires?!! So, not content with hitting cameramen with wheels and tyres we also want to subject them to fire?!! In it's favour, it won't take too much understanding of what is happening to know on which lap most of the cars will be stopping.

Alonso - ever the voice of reason.

"We all try to find the limit in pitstops," he said. "If they find a solution to increase the pitstop time to improve safety, and it is the same for all the teams, I think no one will disagree."

I hope that they can come up with a solution before F1 completely falls apart.

well, when you put it in that context, really they have far bigger fish to fry than sorting out some pitstops

They should just eliminate pit stops all together. One set of tyres for the whole race.

And then the whinging will begin about the processional racing, but would make Saturdays more interesting.

I don't see what adding more pit stops to the racing adds to the spectacle apart from having more pit stops. Its not like these tyres have turned F1 into Formula Ford in terms of racing quality.
