I believe that EERO has much of it correct when he states that the lower record of reliability in the past made things a bit more interesting. Car X might have been dominant, but could break down creating a different combination of winners.
I wonder how the % of cars finishing today compares with the 60's, 70's, 80's.. and so on.
While we've also had a few periods of dominance, they haven't been quite as sustained as this, and usually there has been more competition in any given race then this year in particular.
The Ferrari/Schumacher combination is one for legends for certain.
