Perhaps they are changing focus back to driver skills more then to technology ?

Yeah, maybe so, Rony. I think its great that they dumped traction control. But on the other hand, technology is what has always set F1 apart.
But, the tire warmers...that's just idiocy to this naive fan. If you don't warm them up, you'll be sending drivers out on the track that have to run at different speeds, slipping and sliding around, until they get up to temperature. They're kind of a safety device in a way.
That said however, it doesn't really matter to me, its just fun to see what happens next!!

any changes really won't keep costs low enough to keep undersponsored teams afloat...Super Aguri for example.
sad but true...

Just as long as they don't keep changing the rules too often and de-stabilise the whole sport.

Historically, its been a somewhat boring race...hard to pass. Qualifying becomes much more important. BUT, I heard it might rain....then we'll be in for some entertainment Monte Carlo is so unique, I would love to visit there someday. This is the biggest race weekend of the year; F1 in the early morning, the Indy 500 at 10:00 am, and the NASCAR Coca Cola 600 at around 3 pm. Luckily like folderol, I'm off on Monday (whew!)
