Its about time they opened up F1 a bit by say allowing smaller cc engines 
with Turbo's/Superchargers etc. Its become far too predictable, dare I 
say boring to watch in most cases.
Another element of F1 which, in my opinion could be impoved is if it had 
a lot more street racing circuits such as Monte Carlo. It would be 
wonderful to see cars racing up The Mall towards Buckingham Palace and 
around Trafalger(sp?) Square etc.

On another note, I was watching Top Gear Motorsport last night, unaware 
that the FIA has relaxed the rules on car design etc in order to 
encourage more manufactures to join in the World Rally Championship. 

Can't see any cars with those rings yet, but we really could do with 
something that sounds as good, or better than the Impreza Turbo's.
