Yes, I agree - the consequences of this slightly erratic decision and the attrocious conditions in Q1 of Barcelona have in practice decided the championship.
I don't disagree that Ekky taking the championship probably contributes to elevate the overall appeal of the sport, but the way the championship was decided probably does not for budding teams and drivers.
