I do think that all these driving aids spoil the sport and the drive for the guy behind the wheel.

Ok, cars have to progress but we can see how boring it has gotten up to now! Coulthard made some good comments this week too:

Traction control, automatic gearboxes or CVT, ABS, launch control, active suspension....

Those are driver aids.

Exactly. Too many 'aids' for the driver. DRS! Doesn't that aid a driver? Telemetry! Doesn't that aid a driver? etc etc.

Yes, have a modern car but let the drivers 'drive'. Let the technicians do the rest before the car goes out on the track and when it comes back!

Get rid of all driver aids! Let the drivers drive!!!!!

About the only driver aids they actually have these days are power steering and semi-automatic gearboxes? Haven't you read any of the thread? Do you even F1?
.

Oh, so they cant alter things from the steering wheel then? Do 'YOU' know F1?

 

[koolpc]

The stuff they adjust aren't driver aids. Changing fuel ratio or shifting your brake bias is just a setup adjustment.

Oh, so doing that doesnt affect their driving then? It doesn't 'AID' their drive?

 

[koolpc]

So what are you suggesting? No changing of anything by the driver at all? Just a steering wheel and a manual gear shift and nothing else?

Yes! That would be interesting! Real racing!

So F1 should be as advanced as Karting.

Probably be more exciting to watch karting at the moment anyway!

Just stop posting please.

I am not entitled to have an opinion because you think different? Grow up please!

Your opinion just consists of worthless throwaway statements like LET THE RACERS RACE LOL.

Awwwwww, shame it doesn't meet with your high standards then!!
