This will totally destroy what little love & excitment I had left for this sport.
Go back 8 or so years and it was immense.

So couple this with the spending cap, and the chances of one team running away with the championship are much greater. As other teams will not have the cash to redevelop their cars....
I really wish the FIA would stop meddling and ruining F1. Or perhaps that is what MM wants so he can shaft BE.

*sigh*
they supposedly changed from the old scoring system (10, 6, 4, 3, 2, 1) to make the points race closer and give teams with cars that consistently made 2nd/3rd place more of a shot at the title
when you add this to the rest of the spending caps and "reliability" rules mandating that engines have to last 2 races and so on, doesn't this mean that if you're not in 1st place after two laps your best plan is to pull out of the race and save your engine for next week where you'll have an advantage over last weeks winner?
Max Moseley, Bernie Ecclestone and the collective FIA need to be removed from power and given a swift but thorough beating, they've steadily been destroying F1 for 20 years

And it's gone again

Winner will not take all in F1 championship
May 8, 2009 by James Allen
There was quite a bit of chatter last week about the inclusion of the ‘winner takes all’ clause in the 2010 sporting regulations, whereby the driver who had the most wins would become world champion.
The FIA had tried in March to introduce it for the 2009 season, but needed the teams’ agreement, which wasn’t forthcoming. It was assumed by most people, including teams and by me, that the system would be introduced in 2010 instead. After the World Council Meeting on 29th April, the rules were published with the winner takes all system in place.
Now it’s gone again.
Two days ago, May 6th, the sporting regulations for 2010 were published again, but with the original system back in place, instead of winner takes all, it says the following,
“The Formula One World Championship driver’s title will be awarded to the driver who has scored the highest number of points, taking into consideration all the results obtained during the Events which have actually taken place. “
In other words back to the way it has been in recent years.
It turns out that it was not something slipped in to the rules on April 29th, but there was simply a mistake made in the version published after the April 29th meeting. When the teams brought it to FIA Race Director Charlie Whiting’s attention it was quickly rectified in the version published on Wednesday.
There is so much else going on at the moment with the row over the budget cap, that it seems winner takes all will be taking a back seat for the time being.
