And I'm not talking about leap-frogging via pitstops or mechanical failures. More overtaking is good, but if it creates overtaking in every grid position but 1st place, then it hasn't worked in my mind. They need to do something about the car in first just running away with it and having a nice Sunday drive and freebie trophy. Because of the cleaner air, it is really a problem where the car up front just becomes untouchable.
On the other hand, FIA doesn't want every race the pole sitter got robbed away on the very first lap and defeating the purpose of Saturday Qualifying.
