If your race tires are wearing out prematurely, make adjustment to your setup, Nascar teams do it all the time and somehow are able to put on competitive 400+mile races weekly. Of course they don't have the computers to deal with either. Maybe if F1 had mechanics setting up their cars instead of computer geeks making adjustments they might be able to put on a competitive show (yes they are shows). When you have 100K plus fans in attendance you are putting on a show.

If F1 wants to learn how to run REAL races maybe thay should contract with the France family to run the program. Tony George took a lesson from Bill France and now owns Open wheel racing in this country.

Not dissing F1 drivers or their equipment, they have the best of both, but F1 is clueless (at least in the US) about putting on a good show for the fans.

You guys can laugh all you want to about Nascar but they own the US racing fan.
