pit stops.

i think they should stop the pit stpos and go back to the old style racing. the pit stops are only good for telly. its know good for the teams it cost them to much money.its ok for the big teams ?

And there are the everpresent risks... with the status quo generally being retained because of the proficiency of all the teams.

Total waste of time and resources.

Pit stops can be great to watch at close quarters, but how many tracks allow you to get close to action? It's a waste of money, and takes away from the best car on the track winning the race...like reverse grids...

i agree, get rid of them, those 45 minute races would be good without pit stops, or make them optional. They give false results, as people make up ground because of the pit crew, not because of the driving. Like Lowdnes at Phillip Island, he wouldn't have finished 2nd if there was no pit stops

Agreed - pitstops are rubbish.
