I hope there are not as many full course yellows this year while cars are being retrieved. In cases where it's obvious that a car is out of the race because of severe damage or a breakdown that isn't repairable, why not take it to the nearest layby, whiz the driver back to the pits and get on with the race instead of having us endure another marathon commercial break or "celebrity" interviews or more chopper shots of the circuit and surrounds while the tow truck slowly wends its way down from the top of the mountain.

This race is one of our very few opportunities to see top overseas teams in action with truly exciting cars, and to see some of our local heroes in something other than four door sedans (think SVG's fantastic effort in the McLaren), so some way of keeping the action flowing has to found. How about Fox Sports showing the race twenty four hours later minus the yellow flag processions? It would only take eight hours... I'll watch the start but when the second yellow comes out I'll hit the record button and go have some morning tea.
