Private entrants ( e.g. Rob Walker, Lord Hesketh etc) should be allowed. I miss tyre wars!!
Old Hockenheim
Tyre Wars
Teams being able to chose their own strategies i.e. not having to use both tyre compound and also choosing fuel load
Sparks from titanium skid plates
The red and white Marlboro McLarens and the Blue and white Rothmans Williams
And finally, believe it or not, James Allen. Has to be better than Coulthard? I mean 'Vi-tell'? Kay Ell instead of Kuala Lumpur? White jeans?
...but for me a Mclaren will always be red and white
...and a Lotus never looked better than when it ran in JPS sponsorship.
Races where the drivers got into the cars and then raced until they ran out of laps or time. Pit stops meant that there was a problem.
Cars which didn't have wings.Private entrants, people like Bira who raced because they loved it even though they didn't have a team.
Drivers racing in multiple different types of racing, F1, F2, sports car and saloon car all in one weekend.
Great tracks which very often were not even designed but run on public roads.
What I would never want back would be the lack of safety rules, too many dead drivers.
Manual gearboxes.
Putting a rival under pressure, pushing him into a mistake and getting past when your rival misses a gear change due to the pressure exerted on him....remember that?
Now can someone explain the difference between manual and manual sequential?
Manuel gearboxes.
I think they were only available for Barcelona weren't they?
