I heard yesterday after the latest team/FIA meeting they are going to stir up qualifying a bit

Next year there will be 4 races with a qualifying race for the top 10 qualifiers. The interesting part is the grid order will be set by reverse championship position order. Great idea as the teams can't strategically position themselves on the grid.

Also the bio % of the fuel will go up to 10%, then later to 20%, can't remember the timeline for this but I didn't know that F1 has been using Bio-fuel for years

Old news but probably the biggest single potential improvement to the racing will be new aero rules specifically written to allow cars to follow closer. The FIA guy in charge of the aero rule program is a well respected ex-F1 chief designer/head of aero. Will be interesting to see how the teams adapt. The cars will also look more F1 less Indy than the recent release photos

Standard brakes make the list in the name of cost saving, 10 yrs ago the team I worked for easily spent $1 million on pads and discs a season. No idea what teams spend now but I guess every little helps. I'm sure the list of standard parts will only get longer.

The best news is the teams seem to all be on board with regards to improving the show, maybe I might start watching it again
