[QUOTE="butthead, post: 1711596, member: 4408"] i get wat u mean... from a cars point of view... the cars today are a bit fragile... compared to the steel framed cars of yesteryears.. any knocks and bangs on the car would have parts cracking and later even cause a crash... drivers would not risk it like the drivers in the old days doing all it takes to overtake someone...even if it means touching wheels... from a drivers perspective... when i have a car that is almost simillar to you... it is very very hard to be zig zagging around the track trying to overtake people, doing banzai moves braking into a turn... the point is... the cars are so closely matched nowadays that the margin of advantage between some of the teams are so minimal that it is not even logical to try their luck on... not even to mention the fragility of their cars...in the late 80s and early 90s... more noticable in the turbo eras... there were sometimes big gap in between teams... so it is quite pointless to pit juan manuel fangio, senna or anyone else with drivers like kimi, alonso and michael... cos we will never know how would old drivers in this eras car and how would this eras driver do in the old cars... i don't know if you get my meaning with all the crappy examples above... but to easily put it... if i were to race you in a Porsche with you driving a typical Merc... surely i will win you and the race would be more exciting as i would be all over your back and overtaking and braking over you would be easy... if you and i were to race in simillar porsches and you and my driving skill is almost the same.. surely the outcome would be less interesting... unless we are willing to put both out lives and other peoples lives on the line... we would be banging each other and nudging each other...you can have this type of actions in lower speed dtm and other slower tye of races... but when you do it in sports that involves speed of up to 300Kph... any wheel put wrong could flip, barrel roll or put a drivers car in the air... in other words you would be wanting all the drivers to win at all cost... so to make the sport more exciting... i would be putting it this way...
