The future of formula 1...

...TV coverage, driver mentality and teenage tantrums.

1) Bernie's response to F1 drivers' concerns

This week the Grand Prix Drivers' Association wrote an open letter to the sports' rule-makers expressing concerns about the future success of formula 1, and criticising its decision making process as 'obsolete and ill-structured'.

In response, Bernie Ecclestone replied...

"You are correct. We must, as you have stated, urge the owners and all stakeholders of F1 to consider restructuring its governance."

Bernie, being his usual obtuse self, seem to have missed the fact that he's part of the problem!  He's the one who pushed for double points at the last Grand Prix of the 2014 season. #fakeexcitement  He's the one with an obsession with reverse qualifying grids to artifically mix up the grid. #artificialracing  He's the one who wanted to introduce a two-tier engine formula. #hollowthreat #politicalmanoeuvre 

Bernie, the letter is clearly aimed at you! #ostrich #headintheground
