Formula 1 has introduced a new points system which will result in the driver with most wins crowned world champion.
The current points system will still operate to decide a tie if two drivers have the same wins and to define all other championship positions.
Had the new rules been in place in 2008, Lewis Hamilton would have lost the title to runner-up Felipe Massa.
From 2010, there will be an optional budget cap of £30m that will reduce some teams' spending by 90%.
The new rules were approved by the World Motor Sport Council of governing body the FIA at a meeting in Paris on Tuesday.

Its not a good thing because if you think about it, say someone like Jenson Button, who is not really a championship contender, has a brilliant season and wins five races and thats the most that season, he becomes the champion.
Its not good because there is a posibility that someone other than the top cars could walk away with the championship at the end of the season.

Im 50/50 on this. I think the current system is ok considering the amount of times the title has gone to the wire the last few years. Although we would of had a different winner, the climax to last season was unbeleivable and we wouldnt of had it through the new system. On the other hand it will mean more exciting races from the start of the season as nobody will be content to just finish second and fight another day. So a yay and a nay from me. We will see how it works out.

If Jenson Button won five races in a season he would be a pretty good contender under the old points rule.

Not if he didn't finish the other races To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
