Loved this little Pompey montage...
Formula 1 commercial supremo Bernie Ecclestone has proposed introducing short cuts to grand prix tracks in an attempt to improve the racing.
...
"I've tried to push the teams with a number of proposals. Imagine a short cut which a driver can use five times every race," said the 79-year-old.
"It would stop people getting stuck behind others and be good for TV."
I've said it before and I'll say it again - it really is time for Bernie to hand the F1 reigns over. He's become obsessed with shaking up a sport that is in probably the best shape it's been in for years.
F1's problems currently lie mainly off the track with damaging stories of race fixing, espionage and bickering. Fix that. The racing has given us a couple of the closest and most interesting championships in years and looks only like it's getting better with a crop of outstanding drivers.
If it ain't broke Bernie, don't fix it.
