You fellows are right on the money. Some of the comments on speedcafe about it being the most exciting round ever with new winners is just garbage. To say it is not unfair because everyone gets the same tyres is missing the point.
Red Bull and Penske have to compromise all through to get an overall result for a title chase.
Others can sacrifice 1 or 2 races & dog it in qualifying( when they would be midfield runners anyway) just to appear the hero on television when they win in prime time in their chosen race and make the title contenders look like also rans.
Supposedly great for the fans and the sponsors who have stuck by the sport but hardly true motorsport.
The fact that Smith, Jacobsen & Jones were front runners at times suggests they have real pace, which they dont have on a level playing field.
A nice try but not the way to go.
